Министерството е поискало тази информация, за да улесни организацията по тестването на учениците и родителите - при избора на тестове.
Според насоките, издадени от министерството, в училищата може да бъде организирано тестване на ученици, ако то обхваща поне 90% от тях и техните родители са съгласни.
