Education in Russia

Education in Russia.

Everyone needs at least a secondary education in his life. So when you

begin spending sleepless nights thinking about the study at school, when

you think longingly of school books, teachers and friends and when you are

at age of 6 there is no doubt it – you’re really to go to school. The best

way to get to know and understand the system of education in Russia is to

know what kinds of schools are in Russia and how children study there.

Every citizen of our country has the right to education. This right is

guaranteed by the Constitution. It is not only a right but a duty, too.

Every boy or girl must get secondary education. They go to school at the

age of six or seven and must stay there until they are 14-17 years old. At

school pupils study academic subjects, such as Russian, Literature,

Mathematics, History, Biology, a foreign language and others.

After finishing 9 forms of a secondary school young people can continue

their education in the 10th and the 11th form. They can also go to a

vocational or technical school, where they study academic subjects and

receive a profession. A college gives general knowledge in academic

subjects and a profound knowledge in one or several subjects.

After finishing a secondary, vocational, technical school or a college,

young people can start working or enter an institute or a university.

Institutes and universities train specialists in different fields. A course

at an institute or a university usually takes 5 years. Many universities

have evening and extramural departments. They give their students an

opportunity to study without leaving their jobs. Institutes and

universities usually have graduate courses which give candidate or doctoral

degrees.

Education in our country is free at most schools. There are some

private primary and secondary schools where pupils have to pay for their

studies. Students of institutes and universities get scholarships. At many

institutes and universities there are also departments where students have

to pay for their education.

Also it is interesting to know how pupils organize their life at

school. So each school or technical has its School or Technical Council. It

helps to plan the policy for the whole school. It organizes the social and

cultural life at the school. School Councils in many schools are chaired by

a student and have a majority of student members. They run discos and

parties, stage drama productions and decorate the student common room.

Music making is part of school life.
