New York teachers would no longer be allowed to proctor or score their students’ Regents exams under cheating-prevention guidelines up for approval by the State Board of Regents in coming weeks.

The board will also consider centralizing the scanning and scoring of multiple-choice questions on state tests — including those for math and reading in grades 3 to 8 — rather than letting school districts handle their answer sheets.

That would save money and allow electronic erasure analysis — which scans for wrong answers changed to right answers — to resume here for the first time in a decade.

“Their proposals make a lot of sense, provided the costs are not passed on to districts like New York City,” said city schools’ chief academic officer, Shael Polakow-Suransky.
