should primaryand secondary examination be abolish?

Answer 1

Absolutely not. There has been a lot of discussion about some children not doing well on standardized (and other) tests, while others excel. In recent years the trend has been to dumb the education system down to the lowest common denominator. This trend has brought excellence to a new low in american education. Without these examinations, there is no way to know what areas need work or where the students stand in their learning process. These tests give a good general idea of where the overall educational level is at, and it is nowhere near where it should be. Abolishing the tests doesn't make nearly as much sense as PREPARING the children, by providing proper education, and (despite recent trends) rewarding excellence.

Answer 2

When you look at a wider picture of testing many countries have harder test for the primary and secondary students. Remember that we now compete in a gobal society, and that means we have to improve education.

I know that in hong kong they go to school 6 days week. Other countries have longer school days and less of a summer vacation.

These students are not tested any less than our students are tested. IMHO there system just not pass these students on to the next grade.

Students not ready for first grade ( or any grade) are passed because the parents don't want the students to repeat a grade. In the long run that student will have a harder time in the next grade and keep falling behind

testing is needed but the out come of testing is to refuse to pass student on to the next grade, when we do this students will understand that they need to learn and then be promoted.
