Minister of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan by the Order dated June 3, 2021 amended the Rules for the unified national testing and public services “Issuance of the Certificate of passing the unified national testing.
Thus, it is said that at the start of testing the entrants enter the building one by one.
Identification of the entering person is produced by the pass and on the basis of an identity document or certificate of completion of secondary education in the current year of persons under the age of sixteen years,” the document says.
At the same time, applicants with an identity document or passport, and who applied by online registration in an automated system, are launched and identify themselves through a scanner of the volumetric shape of the person’s face.
Hand-held and frame-type metal detectors are used at launch for testing.
As noted, the use of metal detectors at the launch for testing is carried out in the framework of ensuring the safety of those entering during the test, as well as preventing them from taking into the building prohibited items of cell phones equipped with the functions of information transfer, including pager, cell phones, tablets, iPad (iPad), iPod (iPod), SmartPhone (Smartphone)), laptops, players, modems (mobile routers), any type of radio electronic communications, including Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth (Bluetooth), Dect, 3G (3G), 4G (4G), 5G (5G) smart watches, calculator, wired and wireless headphones, cribs, educational and methodological literature.
If the detection of the above prohibited items during the metal detector test in the launch test, the testing administrator draws up a report “On the exclusion of the entrant in the building of the metal detector in the building of the UNT” and the entrant is not allowed to this test.
Changes also affected the work of the State Commission.
Thus, the heads of higher educational institutions (heads of cities, districts (departments) of education) are appointed as chairmen of the state commission, which ensure the organization and conduct of the UNT, as well as the use of metal detectors, devices that suppress signals of mobile and electronic communications within the permissible magnetic waves, depending on the area of the classroom (computer lab) and video surveillance.
It is also stated that the state commission together with representatives of law enforcement agencies ensures the protection of public order during the testing.
In addition, it will organize the use of devices that suppress mobile and electronic communication signals within the allowable magnetic waves, depending on the area of the classroom (computer lab), as well as obtaining a protocol for measuring the electromagnetic field.
When conducting the UNT in electronic format, the entrants are launched into the building one by one, with the identification of the identity of the entrant through the scanner of the volumetric shape of the person’s face.
In addition, all the above-mentioned measures similar to the entering in full-time format are observed.
