The purpose of this dissertation is to find out how some teachers perceive the national tests. I have used a qualitative approach and interviewed six teachers in a large upper secondary school, three teachers from a theoretical programme and three from a vocational programme. The research questions concern the role and effect of the national test, and teachers‟ views on result-based wages.The result shows that my informants perceive the national tests as a guideline to support them in their assessment and grading, and to concretize the national syllabus and grading criteria. Even though all of my informants feel that the workload surrounding the national test is heavy, they think having the national test helps them in their every-day work.
