Eduardo Marçal Grilo, former Minister of Education, considered that the digital grading of secondary school exams does not constitute a significant reform of the Portuguese education system.
According to Grilo, the real problem of education in Portugal is not in the exam grading mechanisms, but rather in access to higher education.
The former minister argued that it is necessary to reformulate the way students access higher education, suggesting that this should be the priority of education policies.
Grilo's statements come in the context of debates about the need to modernize and improve the education system in Portugal.
