Exams. Delays detected in re-evaluations at 69 schools

Observador28 August 2026 at 20:57

An inspection report identified delays in exam re-evaluations at 69 schools, revealing operational failures and errors in managing the process. The problems detected were related to administrative and technical oversights, with no evidence of deliberate intent found at the schools involved.

Digital exams were identified as one of the main causes of the failures that resulted in delays in the publication of grades. These technical problems compromised the normal functioning of the assessment system and generated additional complications for students and educational institutions.

The consequences of these delays directly affected access to higher education, since the timely publication of grades is essential for student application and placement processes. Many candidates saw their chances of entering their desired course compromised by the uncertainty of the results.

The inspection report comes following complaints and concerns raised by students, parents, and higher education institutions regarding the problems that occurred during the re-evaluation period.

SMS Establishes Itself as the Foundation of Business Communication

SMS has transformed into essential infrastructure for digital corporate communication in Brazil during 2026, shifting from being seen as a declining channel to operating as an automatic fallback mechanism: when richer channels like WhatsApp or RCS fail, the system reroutes the message via SMS without human intervention. Data from Anatel shows that Brazil closed the first quarter of 2026 with 276.4 million mobile accesses, a number higher than the total population, while an IBGE survey indicates that the internet was present in 95% of households in 2025—leaving a significant portion dependent on unstable connections or without active data plans, where SMS sustains itself through its reliability.
