The first step Armenia and Karabakh took after joining the conference
of Bologna was transition of the secondary school to 12-year
education. The next step Armenia and Karabakh are now preparing for
is the senior school.
The NKR minister of education Vladik Khachatryan told Karabakh-Open.com
presently the ministry is drafting the new bill on education which
will include a provision on the senior school.
"During the discussion of the bill in Armenia we also made some
proposals," Vladik Khachatryan said. The minister explained the idea
of senior school.
Vladik Khachatryan says the purpose of the senior school is to enable
senior school students to do more independent work. The basic school
will have 9 forms, after which the students can choose specializations
- humanities, natural science and vocational education. In each
specialization the students will study one subject or another more
intesively. During the discussion it was proposed that each senior
class should involve up to 18 students. The separation of the senior
school from the system of secondary education is being considered.
The minister underlined that in the capital and the regional centers
the separation of the senior school from the secondary school may
now cause major problems, whereas in the villages the separation may
encounter difficulty.
Vladik Khachatryan says in the upcoming year 30 senior schools will
open in Armenia. There is no decision for Karabakh yet.
By the way, yesterday President Bako Sahakyan held a working
consultation in which the problems of universities and the perspectives
of development of higher education were discussed, the General
Information Department of the president administration reports.
