AI-assisted research summary: This is the preamble to a Grand-Ducal regulation modifying the rules on the organisation of the final secondary school examination.

AI-assisted research summary: This article changes rules for exam administration: the lycée director or delegate proposes examination commission members to the minister, and the commissioners consult on organizing the exam.

AI-assisted research summary: This article amends Article 4 by removing one point, changing another, adding a possible ministerial derogation on written reasoned request, setting a filing deadline, and requiring the director to draw up the list of candidates.

AI-assisted research summary: This article changes the exam rules: six exam subjects per section, students must present all exam subjects, and oral-exam language choices must be told to the director by the deadline.

AI-assisted research summary: This article amends Article 7, point 3, by replacing the words “de deux experts” with “d’experts”.

AI-assisted research summary: Le commissaire transmet les sujets ou questions au directeur du lycée pour chaque épreuve, par papier sous pli cacheté ou par voie électronique sécurisée, et un numéro d’ordre doit être apposé sur les copies d’examen pour préserver l’anonymat.

AI-assisted research summary: If there are problems during examinations, the director must contact the Government commissioners.

AI-assisted research summary: Examinateurs must enter marks into a secure database within deadlines set by the commissioner; correctors must keep a written record of their marks until the end of the autumn session; the director is responsible for archiving copies.
