Over 14,000 students with disabilities complete gaokao with some help
By Xu Nuo
More than 14,000 students with disabilities nationwide successfully completed this year's national college entrance exam, known as the gaokao, thanks to tailored support from local education authorities.
The Ministry of Education had mandated that during the gaokao, which took place from Saturday to Tuesday, special services and necessary assistance be provided for students with disabilities or those facing challenges.
For instance, education authorities have provided Braille exam papers for blind candidates for 12 consecutive years, allowing them 1.5 times the standard duration to complete the exam compared to regular candidates.
Additionally, visually impaired students received large-print exam papers and answer sheets and were allowed to bring necessary aids or devices, such as Braille pens, handwriting boards and drawing tools.
