SETTING an independent assessment organisation to handle the national examinations will minimise the issue of cheating, examination mal-practice investigation and review team deputy chairman Dr Arnold Kukari says.
Kukari said they have recommended for the Education Department to establish an independent assessment and examination organisation that would monitor the examinations. He said the organisation could engage independent exam writers to come in and write the exams. He said with the 62 recommendations they are already in the process of reforming the examinations systems. “Department shift from using manual to processing the exams where exam writers come and sit and set exams for a long time where now the exams were all in a computer they will be password guarded and items saved onto a sever.” One of the recommendations include printing and proof reading will be done in Australia as well as packaging before it is transported to Papua New Guinea and dispersed to the provinces. He said security in the process of examination was an issue and they are happy the department was taking on board their recommendations to improve the system from cheating.
