Belgium's Wallonia-Brussels introduces new CLE test for 4th graders; directors raise concerns

Starting Tuesday, 4th-grade students in the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles will take the new CLE test, a non-certifying external evaluation of French and math skills. Some school directors question its usefulness and potential consequences, though the test does not determine student pass/fail. The move signals a shift in educational assessment policy in the region.
