Dear Bagrut Examiners

Those of you who worked Winter may remember that the issue of reducing the excessive quotas for Modules B,D,F and G was hotly discussed. Over 200 examiners signed a petition stating they would not work in the summer unless the current unrealistically stressful quotas were significantly reduced.

Over the past four months several letters have been sent to Agaf Habechinot and the relevant powers of the Ministry regarding this urgent issue. After considerable stalling for time, the Head of Agaf Habechinot asked Judy Steiner to come up with a compromise. A suggestion of 9 per hour for Module D and 6 per hour for Modules F and G was eventually tendered. Regrettably, however, to date, no reply from the Ministry as to the suggestion and no commitment regarding quota reduction has been forthcoming. With the marking process of hundreds of thousands of exams for the Summer Moed about to begin and potential vast amounts for Moed Beth to be held in less than three weeks time, should no firm commitment to reduce the quotas for the said Modules be given by the Ministry, no marking will take place.

It is sincerely hoped that by 1st July, the day of the general Tidruch, such a firm undertaking will have been made and there will be no need for recourse to such drastic action.

Please check Etni regularly for further information and inform all your colleagues who may not have seen this message.
