In the past two days, the Hong Kong DSE exam (known as: Hong Kong College Entrance Examination) has been on the hot search in the two places.
The first is a software failure event.
In this year's examination, candidates and invigilators have to use the "Easy Registration" and "Easy Invigilation" applications respectively to sign in and verify the identity of candidates.

Some students said that the equipment failed, thus!
As a result, some Legislative Council members suggested that the HKEAA should require the contractor to submit a report explaining the details of the program error!
After all, these two systems took a lot of development...
And the second thing is that the DSE topic has been spread!
01
DSE exam questions have been spread!
In Hong Kong, examination marking is a very serious and important task.
But this year, it has been exposed one after another, and the topic has been spread!
On April 11, the 2024 DSE exam opened for the Chinese liberal arts, and on the same day, someone uploaded a picture of the first volume of the Chinese Chinese on the mainland social platform "Xiaohongshu", and even claimed "no"...
Subsequently, the account was banned for violating relevant community rules, and the post was deleted.

Since then, there have been intermediaries who have opened immigration, international study and other businesses to upload pictures of test papers marked with the words "2024 DSE real questions" to Xiaohongshu, including mathematics, English, biology and other subjects!

What's more, some self-proclaimed candidates uploaded photos of Chinese test papers on Xiaohongshu, generously saying:
"I was filmed in the mainland examination room of DSE!"
After that, he even claimed that "it was taken only when it was out of the examination room, and there were no violations in the whole process"!
You should know that the HKEAA attaches great importance to the confidentiality of DSE examinations!
First of all, there is the personnel confidentiality regulation. According to the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority Ordinance, all officers appointed or employed by the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority, including HKDSE examination staff, are required to report what they have learned in the course of performing their duties.
Secondly, there are quite strict and clear guidelines for the examination process. After each session, the Examiner is required to store the answer sheets in a safe place and arrange for all the answer sheets and related documents to be collected after the last session of each course is completed on the same day.

So, how did the question come out? To this, the HKEAA responded the day before yesterday:
"The HKEAA said that it is seriously following up on the situation that someone reprinted or published the content of the test questions on the Internet, and!
If it is confirmed that there is a breach of confidentiality by examination staff, appropriate follow-up actions will be taken in accordance with the established procedures. ”
On the 16th, after receiving the report from the HKEAA, the police attached great importance to it, and the first team of the Serious Crime Unit of Wan Chai Police District took over the investigation.
Yesterday, the Police successfully arrested one person suspected of contravening the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority Ordinance! The arrested person has been released on bail pending further investigation and is required to report to the Police in mid-May.

As for the reason for the topic, it has not yet been decided, but many netizens analyzed:
"Mainly for, tutoring DSE!"
Such an analysis is not without reason,!

DSE Exam Questions: Last year's Gaiden
Last year, a Hong Kong teacher posted a copy on Xiaohongshu as a grader, and in another post he announced that his contract with the HKEAA would expire.
After a lot of intelligence analysis and collection, the police arrested a male secondary school teacher surnamed Huang in Hong Kong!
However, interestingly, the police pointed out that although the arrested teacher Huang was a full-time teacher in a local secondary school and claimed to be a marker on the Internet, he ......

According to the police investigation:
In recent years, a large number of mainland students have gone to Hong Kong to further their studies, and the teacher has posted in simplified Chinese on social media platforms commonly used in the mainland and falsely claimed information such as "grader" and "DSE confidential information", probably in order to show his "" and attract students to enroll in private tutorial classes and thus earn profits. ”
And the focus of the investigation, already.
Seeing this, I believe you also have questions:
"Isn't DSE called the Hong Kong college entrance examination, and why is the audience mainland students?"
It's because of ah,.
As we all know, the (Mainland) college entrance examination is very competitive, in recent years, more than 10 million candidates have participated in the college entrance examination, and as the only international examination in the world that can be used as an answer,!

To put it simply, there are two types of mainland students who take the DSE exam.
"The first is to completely abandon the gaokao and invest in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination, their direction is very clear, their target is universities in Hong Kong or overseas. The second group of students is those who have to cope with the (Mainland) college entrance examination and the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (HKDSE) outside of class time, and these students actually have relatively good results. ”
What's more, many students with mainland identity have a better chance of entering prestigious schools in Hong Kong, and the tuition fees are cheaper!

In recent years, at least 20 schools in Shenzhen alone have offered relevant courses!
Last year, 254 candidates with non-Hong Kong identity cards sat for the HKDSE Examination.

Mainland candidates: take the Hong Kong DSE
Therefore, in the case of such a strong demand for DSE tutoring, some institutions or individuals do not hesitate to take risks and establish their own "authority" by obtaining "test paper questions" or directly "falsely" through illegal means to attract students to enroll in cram schools!

However, every time this kind of similar case comes out, the HKEAA and the Hong Kong police will attach great importance to it, and people have been arrested one after another last year and this year, and they have also given warnings to criminals:
The Internet has never been a place outside the law, and there is a price to pay for talking nonsense!
As for the suspected DSE Mainland examination room "candidate leaking questions", the Secretary-General of the HKEAA, Wei Xiangdong, emphasized:
DSE's security measures at the test site in the mainland are stricter than those in the mainland!
(Candidates in the Hong Kong examination room are allowed to bring mobile phones into the examination room), and there are communication blocking facilities, under such a "double blessing", it is unlikely that there will be test questions flowing out!

So, the "leaking incident" in the mainland examination room,?
Some experts have pointed out that for the first time this year, Hong Kong has set up DSE examination centres in Shenzhen and Guangzhou on the Mainland, and has introduced a new "Easy Invigilation" system, which has caused many uncertainties and hidden worries in the entire examination process. In addition, it has been exposed one after another in recent days that candidates are involved in leaks and other violations.
The conjecture of conspiracy theories was also supported by Wei Xiangdong. He condemned some people for deliberately spreading false rumors,!
Finally, I would like to ask you: What do you think about the topic of DSE? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area.
