HAIL: A number of schoolboys and girls of Hail secondary and intermediate schools have rejected a decision by the region's Examinations and Admission Administration to authorize supervisors of subjects in all specializations to prepare final exam questions for the second academic semester (first round) and distribute them to schools at the rate of two subjects in each school. While visiting the Ministry of Education branch in Hail Monday, several male and female students asked about the mechanism for specifying the subjects and why the decision was issued hastily, without studying the positive and negative aspects. One student, Ahmad Al-Shammari, said, “Every educational decision, program or experiment in the world undergoes in-depth study first.” Saleh Saud, another student, said, “We are not against the decision, but the general atmosphere in the schools should have been prepared and all the students' requirements should have been available, including good air-conditioning, maintenance of the schools and opening a dialogue and correspondence with the supervisors before executing or taking the decision.”
