They say they will just turn the external exam into an internal one, but I do tend to agree with the critics who say that this will degrade the subject. Not only that civics, the only school subject in the Israeli curriculum that deals with democracy is taught only 3-4 hours a week in a single year, now they want to deal another blow to it?
