and the average grades for the first half of the current academic year during the week ending on
Friday, ⟦13⟧/1/1961, provided that this is not delayed beyond Sunday, 15/1/1961, so that

subjects in a general review, or for finishing a subject that the teacher had not completed before.

teaching in terms of order.
Fourth - The mid-year exam schedule has been posted in the teachers' room; please review it immediately and contact the administration

the responsibility for printing the questions to the teacher.
Sixth - Please submit the mid-year exam questions to the administration before Wednesday, 25/1/1961,
in one copy only if the teacher decides to print them by stencil, and in three copies if they decide otherwise, provided that

one-thirty in the afternoon. Then from five o'clock in the afternoon until ten o'clock
at night. Correction may be carried out at times other than these each day by agreement with the administration.

completing the correction of part or all of them.
10 - The marks for each question are placed separately on the cover of the booklet, with the marks for the oral components

recording the grades in their private grade book and in their grade file along with their signature.
12 — The administration will announce the full results to the students on Friday, June 23, 1961,
immediately after the end of the exams. Therefore, teachers are requested to begin grading
immediately after the exam for each subject is conducted, so that the administration can record the grades day by day
during the exam week in the official registers. Any negligence in completing the grading will be considered a failure
to perform one's duty.
13 — The administration expects the teachers (male and female) to be keen on keeping the exam results confidential
from students and from any person unrelated to the exam subject before the results are announced to the students by
the administration, and not to allow any person to interfere or mediate in helping any male or female student
without merit.
14 — Teachers (male and female) and lecturers are requested to organize the annual plan so that it includes
what each teacher taught during the school year in various subjects,
and to list the names of the books they taught from. If there are prescribed books, it is sufficient to mention the page
numbers that were taught. If there are new books the teacher recommends using for the next school year,
please list their names along with the classes for which they are recommended, provided that this information
is submitted before Tuesday, June 13, 1961, as a final deadline.
15 — Please submit the final exam questions and the make-up exam questions (with their solutions by order of the Ministry of Education)

16 — The administration is ready to provide every teacher or lecturer with Roneo paper and stencils
if they wish to print the questions. They must personally type the questions on the wax paper (stencil),
supervise the printing, and burn the drafts, as the administration wishes the responsibility for printing the questions to rest
solely on the teacher.
17 — The final exam schedule will be posted in the teachers' room. Please review it immediately and provide
any remarks requested by the teachers in this regard so that the schedule can be finalized and made permanent
as soon as possible.
