Dear English Teachers,
Now that the strike is over, I am sure that you have many questions
regarding the Bagrut exams and I will do my best to answer them. Please
note, however, that queries regarding the Bagrut exam can be divided into
two categories:
1. Those that are under my jurisdiction to answer. I will post these
questions together with their respective answers on our site.
2. Those that will be answered by the Minister or the Director-General. I
will post any updates that are relevant to this category when I receive
them.
Here are answers to questions I have received so far:
Question: Now that the strike is over, I would like to know what your
guidelines are for the Bagrut exams.
Answer: The English Inspectorate is aware of the many challenges you and
your students face in preparing for the Bagrut exam. Taking this into
consideration, the following decisions have been made:
1. For students who will be finishing their English Bagrut exams this year -
students can read two books less than originally required for the Extensive
Reading Program.
2. For students who will be finishing their English Bagrut exams this year -
teachers can teach two short stories instead of the play and one poem less
than originally required.
Question: If our students are completing the third module in the Winter, can
they be tested on the Oral Examination after the Winter written exams?
Answer: I am checking out this option at the Ministry. As soon as I get an
answer, I will post it on our site.
Question: Will projects still be part of the Bagrut? What about students who
haven't done projects? Will they still have to do a project?
Answer: There are no changes regarding the projects.
Question: Will the date of the Summer Bagrut be changed?
Answer: This is a decision of the Testing Department.
