Sommaire
The Test de Dixième Année is administered annually by the Bureau des Évaluations du Système Éducatif, Ministère de l' Enseignement de Base et Secondaire, de l'Enseignement des Métiers, de la Formation Professionnelle et de l'Alphabétisation, to grade 10 (ISCED 2) students in general education programmes in public, private and “sous-convention” schools. “sous-convention” schools are religious institutions that are subsidised by the government. The Test de Dixième Année is a high-stake and mandatory examination that allows selection of students to specific courses in upper-secondary education (ISCED 3). Schools determine whether students can access the course of their choice based on their test score (students are ranked in order of merit for each course) and the number of available seats in each course.
The Test de Dixième Année is a written examination, administered face-to-face and delivered through paper-pencil tests. All test-takers are presented with the same cognitive booklets or tests, which are aligned with the national curriculum.
The Test de Dixième Année serves the following purposes:
- student selection for admission into specific courses
- school or educator accountability
- promoting competition among schools
- monitoring education quality levels
Census (all students at the given grades or ages)
Results are reported at the student, school, sub-national and national levels. Data are disaggregated by sex and type of school (public, private and "sous-convention").
Results are posted in schools, and a ranking of schools based on student results is published in a printed report that is available for consultation at the Bureau des Évaluations du Système Éducatif.

Description of test items: Test items consist of multiple choice questions with three or more response options, open-ended questions requiring short constructed responses and individual projects.
Description of stimuli: Test stimuli consist of mixed texts.
Reporting metrics: Student performance is reported by average score. The minimum requirement to meet the national standard is a score of 50 out of 100. However, this minimum score is theoretical only, as the schools decide to select a student for specific courses not only based on their test results, but also based on each student's course choice, and the number of available seats in the selected course.
