The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has reviewed the review and postponement of the introduction of the descriptive question to the university entrance examination, and the opinion for promptly expressing the policy has been issued. I'm in a hurry and will conclude this month.

There are concerns about whether the quality of scoring entrusted to private companies can be guaranteed, and there is self-scoring after the test, as to the problem of writing language and mathematics that will be introduced in the university entrance common test starting in January next year. Some have pointed out that it is difficult.

Under such circumstances, on the 5th, the Liberal Democratic Party's subcommittee compiled a resolution requesting the government to make necessary improvements and revisions as soon as possible to express its policy, and the Komeito Party will consider revising and postponing it. Proposed to the Minister.

In response to this, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has been working urgently to determine what kind of improvements can be made in cooperation with private-sector operators who are scoring, and this month, considering the impact on students. I decided to draw a conclusion.

Last month, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology announced the postponement of the introduction of the English private examination, as it is not a system that allows students to take the exam with confidence regardless of the economic situation or area of ​​residence.
