4間學校申請做DSE內地試場 校長稱保管試卷更嚴謹 勿擺地牢免水浸
At least four schools for the children of Hong Kong people have applied to become DSE examination venues in mainland China, but ensuring examination fairness and preventing the leakage of examination papers have become key concerns. Lai Bing-wah, principal of Dongguan Jinan University Hong Kong and Macao Children School, which has applied, said on a radio programme that the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority has stricter requirements for storing examination papers than in Hong Kong. For example, it requires that the papers not be stored below the second floor to avoid flooding, that the room should not have windows, and that the papers should be kept in a safe. He disclosed that none of the four schools that have applied has yet been approved as an examination venue.
至少4間港人子弟學校申請成為DSE內地考場，但如何確保考試公平和考卷不會洩露，成為關注重點。有份申請的東莞暨大港澳子弟學校賴炳華校長在電台節目表示，考評局對試卷存放要求比香港更嚴謹，例如要求試卷不要儲放在二樓以下避免水浸，房間不應有窗，試卷亦應儲放夾萬。他透露現時4間申請學校，都未獲批成為試場。

DSE考生投訴「買卷」太貴違私隱條例 考評局：收回成本、用者自付原則
DSE candidates may apply to the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA) for copies of their answer scripts and marking records, commonly known as “buying scripts”. The first subject costs $380, with each subsequent subject charged at $104. Obtaining copies of their scripts helps candidates understand whether any marking errors were made. A current-year candidate complained to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data that the fees for “buying scripts” were too high. The HKEAA had previously not offered a lower-cost electronic option for obtaining scripts. Although it introduced an electronic option this year, it reduced the fee for the first subject by only $20. The candidate questioned whether this complied with the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance, which prohibits charging fees for accessing personal data that are “excessive”.
DSE考生可向考評局申請取回答卷複本及評分紀錄，俗稱「買卷」，首科申請要支付380元，其後每科以104元計算，考生取得答卷複本後，有助了解答卷有無改錯。有應屆考生向私隱公署投訴「買卷」收費過高，考評局過往未提供價格較低的電子取卷方式，今年即使提供電子選項，但只在首科申請減20元。考生質疑不符《私隱條例》不得收取「超乎適度」的查閱資料費用。

小紅書泄DSE評卷參考 本地中學男教師被捕
Earlier, a person claiming to be a marker for this year’s Diploma of Secondary Education Examination uploaded to the social media platform Xiaohongshu the cover of a Chinese Language marking reference document bearing the word “Confidential”. After the Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority reported the incident to police, officers yesterday arrested a 38-year-old full-time teacher at a local secondary school. Senior Inspector Chan King-lok, officer in charge of Team 1 of the Wan Chai district crime squad, said the arrested man was not a marker for the authority. Police suspected that he wanted to use the document to attract students to enrol in private tutorial classes and profit from it.
早前有自稱應屆文憑試閱卷員的人士，在社交平台「小紅書」，上載一份印有「機密」字眼的文憑試中文科評卷參考封面。考評局就事件報警後，警方昨日拘捕一名38歲本地中學全職教師。灣仔警區重案組第一隊主管高級督察陳敬樂稱，被捕人並非考評局閱卷員，懷疑他想透過文件吸引學生報讀私人補習班，並從中圖利。
