Testing for Intelligence

I think every child should be assessed in school. This will give the teacher a synopsis of where the student stand. This will let the teacher know, what the student know and don't know. I feel every student should be assessed at least twice a year; so they can keep track of the student progress.



 The Chinese education system consists of six years of primary school, three lower secondary, and three upper secondary school. At the age of 15, they have the option of leaving school or go to a upper secondary school.All students attend an academic lower secondary school, at the end of which they take a locally administered entrance exam for upper secondary school. Depending on the results of this exam, they may enter an academic or a vocational upper secondary school, or they may choose to end their formal education.  Chinese students receive formative assessments throughout their education. These typically take the form of year-end or term-end tests as well as casual assessment from teachers. They are also required to take graduation examinations at the end of primary, lower secondary and upper secondary school, in addition to the entrance examinations for the next level of schooling.
