An official response was issued regarding the objections expressed in social media about the qualification category certification tests in mathematics, the time allocated for them, and the test results.
It was reported that the autumn 2026 certification is being held based on the Cabinet of Ministers' resolution No. 572 dated September 17, 2021, and the order of the Minister of Preschool and School Education No. 277 dated July 29, 2026.
According to the ministry, test tasks for mathematics were developed based on the approved specification and tested twice through approbation before the main exams. During this process, the content of the questions, the level of complexity, and the time allocated to complete them were also tested.
It was also noted that the complexity level of the main tests matches the samples in the demo tests, and there may be differences in the wording of the questions, numbers, or problem conditions.
It is reported that the tests are aimed at assessing the theoretical knowledge, practical application, analysis, and logical thinking skills of pedagogues. The expressed feedback will be studied, and grounded objections will be reviewed in the established procedure.
