NKR SCHOOLS SWITCH TO 12-YEAR SYSTEM OF EDUCATION

STEPANAKERT, JUNE 7. ARMINFO. A 12-year system of education will be introduced in NKR from 2006 and children will go to school at the age of 6.

ARMINFO’s reporter in Stepanakert informs, referring to data of country’s ministry for education, culture and sport, that more than 6.000 children were educated in about 90 pre-school institutions before military operations in NKR. At present about 2.000 (10% of all children of pre-school age) children go to kindergartens. To solve this problem, preparatory groups engaged in problems of pre-school education operate at country’s 35 secondary rural schools.
