Israel’s Education Minister Yoav Kisch has a system: If the results of an exam do not suffice, they should be kept secret; if the person in charge of the exams refuses, they should be fired

The first was to cancel the national standardized school exams, known as Meitzav, for the current school year. The second was to stop cooperating with the National Authority for Measurement and Evaluation in Education, the ministry’s gatekeeper.
