Local authorities and voluntary establishments had until February 15, 2024 to express themselves if they wished to participate in this full-scale test. However, the Ministry of National Education decided in recent days to extend this deadline until June.

“The experiment will begin in September,” the ministry told RMC in an e-mailed response to a request from RMC for a comment on this story. The call for expressions of interest was sent to local elected officials and educational establishments on February 15.
