      The Ministry of Education of Russia has made changes to the organization of educational activities. According to the new order, first-graders will no longer receive grades for behavior. The changes have already been published on the official internet portal of legal information and have come into effect. The document specifies that the control over compliance with internal regulations, including discipline in lessons and rules of conduct in educational organizations, is carried out by teaching and administrative staff. At the same time, behavior grades are allowed in three categories: "exemplary," "acceptable," and "unacceptable." However, this rule does not apply to first-grade students.

      Special attention in the order is given to students with disabilities. For them, behavior assessment will be carried out taking into account the features of psychophysical development and health status, particularly for children with mental development delays or intellectual disabilities.

      Let us remind you that in Russia, unified textbooks in the state languages of the republics of the country will be created. Bilingual dictionaries for schools will also be published in Russia, written in Russian and one of the national languages — for example, a Russian-Tatar dictionary.
