Education in Russia
Education in the USSR was guaranteed to Soviet citizens by the Constitution and was free of charge, including higher education. Teaching at schools was conducted in almost all national languages. The system of education was the same throughout the country.
School attendance was compulsory for those between 7 and 15. Those who completed their secondary education and passed entrance examinations to higher education establishments received monthly grants if they did not fail the examinations that they took at the end of each term. Higher education lasted five years.
In 1991 the former fifteen republics of the Soviet Union became independent states The Russian Federation, the biggest and the most powerful of them began to develop as a democratic state. From the very start democratic reforms began to take place in many fields of life. The latest changes in political, economic and social conditions required changes in the system of education. Its aim is to prepare the growing generation for independent life and work in new conditions.
New curriculums were introduced in schools such as “The World Around Us” for younger students and “Fundamentals of Information Science and Computer Engineering”, “Ethics and Psychology of Family Life” for senior students. Along with state schools where education is free of charge there appeared many private schools, colleges, lycées,3 gymnasiums and different courses where students can study sciences and humanities including foreign languages.
At some schools the leavers are sent abroad to continue their education at Sorbonne in Paris, at the Universities of Great Britain, Germany, USA and other countries.
After graduating from those Universities they return to their country to work in different fields of national economy.
A former student of a Russian school said on his return hernie:
“I was surprised how much there is in common between Russian and Western young people - their love for entertainments and the same kind of music and their wish to know everything new. I hope there will be time when young people from abroad will also come to our country to study.
Such exchanges of students will undoubtedly result in better understanding among people which in its turn will bring greater stability to the whole world.”
