Israeli Minister of Education Yoav Kisch has announced the temporary suspension of the "Tnuva" exams, previously known as "Meitzav," in Israeli schools. This decision will remain in effect until changes are made to the testing system, incorporating recommendations from Professor Ami Moyal, who heads the Planning and Budgeting Committee of the Council for Higher Education. Moyal's report was released the day before the announcement.
According to the minister's directive, the National Institute for Testing and Evaluation (Rama) will cease all work for the Ministry of Education until the proposed changes are reviewed. This move comes amid an ongoing dispute between Minister Kisch and Rama's Director General Gal Alon concerning the agency's operations and the need to revise the student assessment system.
The "Tnuva" exams are utilized to gauge student knowledge levels and the effectiveness of the educational system. The future of these assessments will be determined by the outcome of the review of Moyal's recommendations and subsequent ministry decisions.
