The Ministry of Education, Science and Innovation (Ministério da Educação, Ciência e Inovação or MECI) has postponed the release of national exam results and the start of the second phase following widespread technical failures. The transition to a fully digital grading system for over 300,000 exams led to missing response sheets and platform accessibility issues for teachers. Unions and educators have criticized the implementation, citing logistical chaos and concerns over the integrity of the assessment process.
Update: Exam grading platform faces further downtime
Teachers have been notified that the digital grading platform will be unavailable again this Wednesday for maintenance. This follows previous outages earlier in the week, leading to continued criticism from the Missão Escola Pública movement regarding the government's ability to manage the assessment process.
