Appendix No. 1
May 27, Friday, the unified State exam- Geography and literature open a series of tests. While yesterday's schoolchildren are preparing for the exam, frantically solving tests and tormenting the Internet in search of answers, we talked with a teacher who has been working as an observer at the exam site for four years in a row. On condition of anonymity, she told how the exam looks like through the eyes of the organizer, how teachers can help children, and why it is worth seeing schoolchildren to the toilet.
How and why become an observer in the exam?
For school teachers participation in USE procedure- it's an obligation. The school administration simply puts forward a list of observers, no one asks the teachers themselves - according to the order, you go to all the briefings, and then you get into the organizing team at the exam point. At the same time, we do not pay extra for such work, we perform it within the framework of our school duties. The only way to avoid this is to become seriously ill.
What is included in the instruction?
The briefing takes place in three stages: the first we go through remotely, we just fill out a questionnaire on the website. If the results of the survey are not very good, they may be urged to read the rules of the exam again. At the second stage, the chairman of the venue gathers all the organizers, where they conduct a personal briefing with us, usually this happens two weeks before the day passing the exam. The last time we are instructed on the day of the exam.
Man becomes something like furniture
It should be clarified that the concept of "organizer" includes positions that are completely different in function. Someone works as an observer in the office, and someone sees them off in the corridor, and so on. Both are organizers. In four years I managed to visit different roles.
What is the hardest thing?
No matter how many diplomas and awards you have: during the exam, your only function is to take the children to the toilet
It is difficult even physically to fulfill all the duties of the organizer. During the time that you spend on the GIA or the Unified State Examination, you can not use the phone or anything else. In fact, human functions are reduced to monotonous inactivity for almost four hours. Of course it's stressful. It is especially difficult to be an observer in the classroom: the teacher does not even have the right to walk around unnecessarily. A person becomes something like furniture so as not to interfere with children taking an exam.
Personally, I am very worried about the children: suddenly, because of the experiences, the child will become ill or he will begin to behave inappropriately. You have to be constantly prepared for such emergency situations, and this is very annoying.
The least honorable thing is to be on duty along the corridor: it doesn’t matter what category you have, how many diplomas, prizes and awards: during the exam, your only function is to take the children to the toilet and pick them up from there.
If you put aside all prejudices, there is at least some movement here. At the very least, you can at least walk along the corridor, quietly talk about something with colleagues. It's a little relaxing.
How the rules of behavior on the exam are changing
First of all, cameras appeared, but I can’t say that this greatly influenced the process of passing the exam. At our venue, all instructions were always followed, so I did not notice a difference. The organizers bear financial responsibility: if the cameras show that the child in the audience cheated, and the teachers in the classroom did not react to this, he may suffer an administrative penalty in the form of a fine of up to 30,000 rubles. It is clear that no one needs such problems.
During the exam, you can’t take off your jacket and hang it next to you
For children, the moment of passage to the examination point has now become tougher. If earlier it was possible to pass even with a piece of paper on which the child noted which exams he was going to, now you can only take with you a passport without a cover, a pen, a chocolate bar and water without a label. If the child comes in a jacket and it’s hot in the room, you suggest that he leave the jacket in the wardrobe, because during the exam you can’t take off the jacket and hang it next to you.
At the entrance, they check with a metal detector that the children do not have phones with them and even wrist watch, as there are a lot of models of "smart" watches. The child is very kindly asked to pass all things forbidden on the exam. All organizers understand that a person is already in a difficult situation and it is not worth escalating stress.
How the organizers can help the child in the exam
We can help in the exam, but strictly within the rules. If the child begins to behave incorrectly, we approach, ask if something is bothering him, thereby making it clear that his behavior is suspicious. This is usually enough for smart children. Of course, if the child behaved completely inappropriately and, after a warning, began to write off, the organizer in the office turns to the main point and he already decides the future fate of the child: will he remain on the exam or not. We had a situation where I saw that the girl had all her hands filled with formulas, and the sleeves were not long enough. I approached her and offered to go to the toilet and wash my hands. To which the graduate literally sent me, they say, as I want, I sit. I had to take action.
Only once did I slightly deviate from the instructions. When I was on duty in the corridor, a child came out to me and asked me to walk with him around the lyceum, not to the toilet and back, but through the floors. I saw that he was very nervous and he needed to move in order to bring himself to his senses. I agreed. He just walked with me in silence, and then thanked me and returned back to the audience. I want to believe that I managed to help him calm down and tune in.
How organizers can influence the success of the exam
Both the organizers and the children, in fact, are set to the same thing. All participants in the process know perfectly well that it is impossible to go beyond the rules. The child, by the way, has the right to write a complaint against the teacher, but this will not lead to anything good.
To make the exams fair, this year video surveillance works only online in all Belgorod venues and in the regional information processing center (previously, recordings from some locations were not broadcast in real time). At each point, mobile communications are suppressed. These and other subtleties should be monitored by public observers.
I began to remember what I know about the final certification of schoolchildren. It turned out that a little. I myself took the exam only in Russian and mathematics. It was in the year when the new format was only introduced as an experiment. And an observer without special knowledge is, in fact, useless. A solution was found: it helped to fill in the gaps distance learning egebook.ru website. The course started at the end of March and lasted until the end of May.
The program suggested that I take a preliminary test, which I did not fail to do, hoping that I might not have to study. But I was overconfident. The computer prompted questions like, "What form is used for appeals?" - with answer options "PPE-02", "2-AP", "1-AP", "PPE 18-MASH" And "PPE-03". Or offered to choose from federal laws, orders of the Ministry of Education and Science and government decrees a document that regulates the work information system for GIA.
I failed to pass the test with the required number of points, so I had to study materials designed for five academic hours. After that final test I passed the first time and they sent me e-mail certificate stating that I have successfully completed the training.

No relatives
With a sense of accomplishment, I went to the Belgorod regional center for assessing the quality of education on Kutuzova, 19 which accredits public observers. They met me very politely and first of all asked what organization I belong to and whether I am a student? I replied that I myself expressed a desire. A little surprise was expressed on the faces of the workers of the center. Apparently, such volunteers come to them a little.
“Observers at the exam are often members public organizations and representatives of political parties who seek to be active, especially during election campaigns. Also, regions often attract students to this, - explained "BelPress" Executive Secretary of the Commission for the Development of Science and Education of the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation Yuri Sedin. “In general, there are no statistics on the main areas of activity of public observers.”
In the application for accreditation, they asked me, in addition to my full name, passport details and phone number, to indicate the organization whose representative I am. I wrote " housewife”, so that they would not treat me as a media representative in any special way. They also warned about the restriction: the mother or other relatives of a student undergoing final certification cannot be present at the exam, as they have a personal interest. When a person submits an application, subsequently family ties are checked. I don't have any relatives who are in the 11th grade, so there were no problems with this.
The employee who accepted the application also suggested that I enter my email address there so that I would not have to go to the center a second time and pick up the public observer's certificate in person.
No one ever asked me for a certificate of completion. Is it true, distance course and not required. 101 people from the Belgorod region registered on the training site this year, while more than 100 people were accredited in the region 600 observers which is almost twice as much as in 2015.
Three days later, they called me back and said that the certificate was ready. But they still didn’t want to send it by e-mail. I had to go to Kutuzov to pick up the document.

Observer Students
I chose the first one this year compulsory subject – Russian language. More than 7 thousand people. Another 4.5 thousand people provided the USE. They also include public observers.
Armed with a notebook, a pen, an identity card and a passport, on May 30 I went to school in Mayskoye, where children from several settlements Belgorod region. At the entrance, my data was recorded in a log, after which we were escorted to the office with other observers, where we left our things. Then I went to the audience, already filled with controllers. There were at least 20 of them, among whom stood out several young people in blue T-shirts with the inscription "Public Observer Corps".
“We work with students of higher educational institutions, - explained the coordinator of the regional corps Anatoly Zaitsev. - Since December, an information campaign has been launched in universities, after which any student can express a desire to conduct public control at the Unified State Examination by filling out a special questionnaire. After that, the guys attend the training seminar and are tested. Those who, as a result, scored the required number of points, become public observers. This year there are 33 of them. They control 23 schools in the region. There are also about 50 students working in the region – public observers from the Kursk region.”
Nothing to complain about
Observers were given a special form, which they fill out during the exam, noting violations.
“Nine classrooms on two floors are involved in the exam, and our headquarters is on the third floor, where you can ask your questions. You can leave at any time by marking the time of completion of the observation,” said the head of the examination point. Svetlana Kozlova.
It turned out that not everyone got seats in the classrooms - one observer was attached to each.
“The rest can’t enter the auditorium. You will prevent children from taking the exam, and then they can appeal about this, ”explained a member of the examination committee Olga Kireeva.
I didn’t get a specific office, and I went to keep order at the entrance to the examination room, where the children had just begun to enter. Most of them did not look scared at all - the guys joked and laughed, and irritation on some faces appeared only when the eleventh-graders began to be checked with hand-held metal detectors. Only one young man from time to time folded his hands in a prayerful gesture and repeated: “Oh-oh-oh-oh!”.

Nothing forbidden for students. The question was caused by a bottle of medicine found in one of them, but still the guy was allowed to pass. In another, a metal detector reacted to chewing gum in a package of foil, and in two young smokers, packs of cigarettes were found in their pockets.
The children went to the classrooms, and I went to check the points in the paper given to me with reality: for example, is there a telephone connection and a safe for storing examination materials at the headquarters, is there a room for medical workers, are the stands with background information on the given subject. Among others, there was a clause that the premises not used in the examination should be closed and sealed. I went to the floor where the exam was not held at all, but even there everything was sealed.
There was nothing to complain about on any point. I still quietly wandered through the corridors, looking into open doors audiences in which children with a concentrated look solved examination tasks. Finding no violations there either, I left with a sense of satisfaction.
For those who still want to try themselves as a public observer this year, there is still time. Children will take the last exams in chemistry and physics only June 20. After that, from the 22nd to the 30th will come reserve days when exams are taken by those who could not do it earlier for good reasons, for example, due to illness or due to the coincidence of exams in different subjects on the same day.
Although the online training is over, on the site you can familiarize yourself with the information materials on your own. And you can be accredited as public observers no later than three working days before the exam.
Anna Bessonova
Public observers play a crucial role in the exam. They can hide the violation in the exam or play an irreparable role in your destiny notice and remove from the class with a cheat sheet. The mother of a Yekaterinburg tenth-grader and an experienced observer on condition of anonymity spoke about the main contradictions of her work.
I was a public observer at the Unified State Exam twice:last year and this year. This was prompted by stories that happened to the children of my friends. The daughter of a friend, who studied all her life for four and five, literally failed the Unified State Examination in Russian, and the son of a colleague at work a ninth grader was so worried about the GIA in mathematics that he left the exam 20 minutes after the start, without starting to solve even half of the tasks. My son will have to take the exam next year, and it is important for me to feel this process from the inside.
As far as I understand, there are not very many who want to become observers. Therefore, parents of high school students are attracted to this role. In our school class teachers I was urged to sign up as observers, three people per class. Fortunately, the activists from the parent committee (including myself) agreed. At the same time, you can’t go as an observer to an exam for your child only in a strange class and a strange school.
The observer at the exam faces a choice: to give out those who cheat, or to cover up? It all depends on what kind of person you are. I know that some observers are specifically trying to catch students with cheat sheets. On the contrary, I'll pretend not to notice. Last year, I saw a girl copying from a paper cheat sheet, but did not give it away. I thought that my son could be in her place, and I don’t want to cause any unnecessary problems for anyone.
It is impossible to carry a phone to the exam. Pupils, teachers, public observers hand them over at the entrance to the school. A month before the exam, observers were asked to name the models of their mobile phones, and before the exam they checked that you had passed your phone, the model that you indicated earlier. It is clear that you can come to the exam with someone else's. But such a check is an additional way to play it safe.
At the exam, you involuntarily feel sorry for the guys. Everything is shrouded in an atmosphere of general anxiety and secrecy. The examination rooms have been sealed since the evening, the envelopes with the examination papers are kept in the director's safe.
The atmosphere of anxiety is also fueled by the teachers themselves, who are also worried and fussing endlessly. They are all pale with excitement, and they are treated like criminals: you have to leave your bag in the corner at the entrance, you can’t put your pen behind your desk, they almost inspect their pockets.
Before the exam, I was given a list of phone numbers and home addresses of those taking the test. In case someone did not come to the exam, I am obliged to call this student or pick him up from home and bring him to school.
There was a case that a student, having come to the exam, forgot his passport. He, along with one of the observers, was sent home for a document. It is impossible to send a schoolboy for a passport alone, suddenly, out of excitement, he decides to run away in order to skip the exam.
The observer records when each of the students leaves the exam. And the last three examiners remain with him in the classroom and are obliged to ensure that he has packed and handed over all the envelopes with the examination papers.
I will strictly forbid my son to take cheat sheets and a mobile phone with him to the exam. If you calmly follow all the rules and silently solve your test, nothing bad will happen at the exam. But if you violate them, you can ruin your life. After all, it is not known what kind of observer will be in your class.
By the way
In that USE year again entangled in scandals related to the leakage of information. Rosobrnadzor recorded 30 cases of publication of completed USE forms in the Russian language on the Internet. And on the eve of the physics exam, four archives in rar format were posted on the Internet. Each archive included six pdf-files with the tasks of parts "A", "B" and "C" of the Unified State Examination in Physics for 2013.
