THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM IN UKRAINE

Ukraine has got rather developed system of education. General secondary education is free and compulsory. The secondary school must secure a uniform level of knowledge necessary for each student.

Secondary education in Ukraine begins at 10 years. Pupils up to the age of 16 should follow a broad curriculum including Mathematics, Science, native and foreign languages, humanities such as: History, Physics, and Chemistry.

There are some types of secondary schools in Ukraine. They are maintained schools and private schools. Lyceums and gymnasiums are supported from public funds and there is only 4 or 5 % of voluntary schools and schools for national minority, where pupils are thought in their mother language. The Ukrainian pupils at the age of 15 pass final examinations in 3 or 4 subjects and get the Certificate of Incomplete Secondary Education. Then they receive further education at vocational schools, where they get secondary and special education. The eleventh-formers also9 pass final examinations in 5 or 6 subjects and get General Certificate of Secondary Education. They may go to the Technical Schools to receive the profession (the term of education here varies from 1 to 2 years) or enter the higher educational establishments within the 5 or 6-year educational term.

In most schools in Ukraine the school year falls into 4 terms, quarters as we call them. But sometimes the academic year is divided into 6 semesters, which lasts 6 weeks each with a break of 1 week between semesters.

Higher education is provided by institution of higher learning: universities, academies and institutes. At each institute or university there is a post-graduate course with post-graduates working for their scientific degrees.

There are many scientific, educational and academic centers in Ukraine Kyiv with its famous National University named after T. Shevchenko, Polytechnic University, and Kyivo-Mohylyanska Academy, which resumed its work in 1991. There are three faculties in the Academy now: the humanities, social and national sciences. Lviv is the leading scientific and cultural center of Western Ukraine. It has a number of research institutes of high level.

Kharkiv University has 10 faculties: mechanics-mathematics, physics, physics-technology, radio-physics, chemistry, biology, economics, history, philology and foreign languages. Ukraine numbers a total of 1.5 million college and university students. Graduates of the Ukrainian institution of higher learning become famous writers, prominent diplomats, economists, chemists, mathematicians and others.

Two years ago some reforms were made in the field of education. Since that time the studying in Ukrainian language became compulsory. The old 5-points system of evaluation of children’s knowledge was replaced by the modern 12-points system. The new school uniform was also introduced. But these uniforms are rather expensive and many parents can’t afford themselves to buy it.

In Ukraine as like as in other countries there are some rewards and prices for the best pupils, such as medals and official documents.
