Armenian education system

The Armenian education system consists of several levels: preschool, primary, secondary, and higher education. Education is compulsory from ages 6 to 16, covering grades 1 to 9. After completing secondary school, students can pursue vocational or higher education at universities, institutes, and colleges. The curriculum emphasizes Armenian language and literature, mathematics, science, and social studies, alongside foreign languages. Education is state-funded, with a growing influence of private institutions. The system aims to blend traditional values with modern educational practices, promoting critical thinking and academic excellence. Reforms continue to enhance quality and accessibility.
