Audit of the exam process. Reassessments out of deadline at 69 schools

RTP Notícias29 August 2026 at 13:30

The General Inspectorate of Education and Science (IGEC) carried out an audit of the processes related to national exams. The audit analyzed issues related to the organization, application, and grading of exams.

It was found that sixty-nine schools submitted reassessments after the established deadline. These schools did not comply with the legal deadlines for submitting exam reassessment requests.

Additionally, twenty-nine schools were late in delivering first phase exams. This delay means they did not comply with the defined deadlines for submitting exam materials.

The IGEC audit thus identified failures in compliance with regulatory procedures by a significant number of educational institutions, both in the delivery of exams and in the management of reassessment requests.
