Serious cheating in exams to be punished by law (Shenzhen Daily) Updated: 2005-09-05 08:48 A new law regulating
examination practices has been drafted by Chinese legal experts, and is now
undergoing legislative discussion and soliciting public opinions, according to a
report by Sunday's Chongqing Commercial Daily.
The law will become China's first legal item on examination and educational
assessments if passed.
It will specify a detailed punishment for cheating, and some serious
irregularities, including cover-up of a cheating behavior by an invigilator and
organized cheating practice, will be regarded as a criminal offense.
Serious offenders could be treated as criminals.
China is said to have the largest number of examinees, with more than 30
million people sitting different kinds of examinations in the country every
year.
However, the country does not have a specified law to regulate irregularities
on the issue. The Ministry of Education has formed a special task group to be
responsible for the drafting of the law in September 2004.
