Jakarta Dept. of Education gives chances for students who were absent for national exam to sit for continuation exam starting May 16-19, 2016.

Absent students were 0.47 percent or 676 students

“Absent students were 0.47 percent or 676 students. They will sit for continuation exam next week,” said Sopan Andrianto, head of agency, Tuesday (5/10).

Principally, national exam is not the single assessment for graduation. It means absent students are still able to sit for continuation exam.

His side targets 100 percent of graduation this year.

“Our target is 100 percent of graduation. Not only for quantity but also quality and integrity,” he closed.
