/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In 2011-12 academic year, Armenian schools will
probably have no graduates, Narine Hovhannisyan, Head of RA Education
Ministry's Comprehensive School Department, told a press conference
Thursday. "In 2011, school system may face educational crisis, so to
say," she said.
That's because 9th grade students will immediately transfer to high
school, with 3 more years to study. However, Ministry is considering
possibilities for 11th grade students' taking exams without attending
classes and entering higher educational institutions, Hovhannisyan
explained.
As noted by Education Ministry official, Armenia introduced 12-year
educational system in 2006, considering up-to-date imperatives. "In
the course of time, school curricula faced the growing need of new
subjects such as 'Computer Science', 'Me and Environment' etc. The
present-day 12-year system envisages 8 lessons only for 11th grade
students," Narine Hovhannisyan stressed.
