He said that "the issue of conducting final certification in 9th grades based on final grades is being discussed, while there is no final decision."

“I think that in the near future we will formulate this decision, we will once again discuss it with teachers and with the regions, and we will make a final decision,” RIA Novosti quoted Kravtsov as saying.

Earlier in Rosobrnadzor it was reported that this year graduates of 9th grades will not hand over subjects of their choice at the OGE.
