印度政府终止了对五、八年级学生的“禁止拘留政策”, 让那些年终考试不及格的学生被拒之门外。 The Indian government has ended the 'no-detention policy' for students in classes 5 and 8 in schools it oversees, allowing those who fail year-end exams to be held back. 这一修改是在2019年对《受教育权法》进行修正之后作出的,至少有16个州和两个联邦领土通过了这项修改。 This change follows a 2019 amendment to the Right to Education Act and has been adopted by at least 16 states and two Union Territories. 失学的学生可在两个月内接受额外教学和重新检查。 Students who fail can receive extra instruction and a re-examination within two months. 如果他们再次失败,他们将受到阻拦,但任何儿童在完成初等教育前都不会被驱逐。 If they fail again, they will be held back, but no child will be expelled before completing elementary education. 该政策影响到3,000多所中央政府学校。 The policy affects over 3,000 central government schools.
