Ukrainian education system did not criticize just lazy. Alas, there are many problems: from a non-competitive pay and working conditions of teachers to the explicit content of our isolation from the modern educational needs and life - as a whole.
Looking into some school books, it seems that the court of the last century... There is, however, one advantage: people involved in the changes in the educational system of Ukraine, in particular, the new Minister of Education of Ukraine Lilia Grinevich, sincerely wish her improvement, and therefore make it change. Before you - the 12 key innovations of the reform.
1. In 2018 the school will introduce 12-year education. I must say that the formal (children simply "jumped" by one class) 12-tap-hole was introduced already in 2002. However, this question is "overgrown" mass scandals due to unresolved financial issues and... age graduates, many of whom, especially in the provinces, to 18 years has become new parents.
2.Following the reform, the 12-year education at the school includes level 3:
- Elementary education (first class 4);
- basic education in the gymnasium (5 years;
- profile high school education in the lyceum or college, college (3 years).
3. expected to appear specialized colleges - artistic and sports, where children will be able to do after sports and art schools.
4. appear preschool - sports, art and military - educational institutions. How do they differ from the usual sections and clubs, we will surely soon find out.
5. Additional extracurricular school - prodlenki, circles and clubs at the school - will now not be assigned to local education authorities and school head (director, head teacher) at the written request of the parents. With regard to funding, it may be proportionate - the state and the parent.
6. schools provide more autonomy. What is the essence? principals will now not assign the order of the Education Department, and selected on the basis of competition and by a panel of school representatives and parents.
7.Reducing the number of schools. Will close schools, where the number of students would be extremely small. The nearest school and back home after classes students will take back free of charge.
8. Everything Ukrainian universities will be held mandatory accreditation: check touches and educational programs of the university standards and university opportunities to fulfill these standards. Simply put, if the university "lame" the material-technical base, the level of the accreditation of the University can be reduced. Even more simply: many universities have decreased (from 802 to 317), or "merge" with other, more powerful, and maintenance of educational institutions.
9.The new education program in universities: in addition brazovatelno-professional, educational and scientific, are expected to appear educational and creativewith three levels of education, which will allow students to create from this high level of culture media.
10.New academic degree - Doctor of Arts, it will be available in the creative art direction graduate universities for 3 years.
11.Three levels of graduation. Students can finish high school in the status of bachelor, master and doctor (of philosophy and art). professional status already sunk into oblivion.
12.student Residences work on the new schedule: now available in dorm building should be around the clock.
P.S. education see in reform experts three main "pitfalls": Professional development of teaching staff, in the first place.
Secondly, the carrying out of proper certification and recertification of teachers - not formal, and approximating the teachers to the level of European teachers - only then can we talk about school autonomy. And, of course, funding for schools and universities. Without these "three pillars" Even 15-year education will not produce any fruit.
