Uniformly equipping stationery is a recruitment regulation to prevent cheating
According to media reports, on the 8th, the staff of the College Entrance Examination Management Office of the Henan Provincial Education Examination Institute said that the unified allocation of stationery is for the fairness and justice of candidates and prevent cheating.
On May 2023, 5, the Henan Provincial Education Examination Institute issued a letter to the 23 college entrance examination candidates, which mentioned that the 2023 Henan Provincial College Entrance Examination will carry out special governance of mobile phone cheating, equipped with smart security gates, the implementation of "smart security check", "silent admission", and unified stationery.
As early as 2015, a procurement announcement released by the Henan Zhoukou Municipal Government Procurement Network showed that according to the relevant content of the "Letter of the Henan Provincial Admissions Office on the Guiding Opinions on the Unified Use of Stationery in the 2015 General College Entrance Examination", the stationery procurement requirements in various places must be domestic first-line brands (such as: hobbies, morning light, good luck, true color), meet the relevant national stationery production standards, and no content related to the examination must be printed on the stationery.
In fact, the "unified pen" is actually not unique to Henan Province. This year, the college entrance examination in Guizhou Province also implemented a unified stationery system, and candidates only need to bring their admission ticket and ID card to take the exam. However, from the perspective of the whole country, most provinces are still equipped with stationery by candidates. (End)
