Distance learning, external independent evaluation, introductory campaign: MES launched a site on key changes in education, implemented for quarantine

All changes in the educational process, implemented through quarantine, are now collected on a separate information resource. In particular, information on distance learning, the end of the school year in schools, this year external independent evaluation and the introductory campaign are posted here.

“From the beginning of quarantine, MES made many management decisions to adapt educational processes to its conditions. Now, key information on major changes can be found on a separate information resource. You can find out more about these changes on the MES website. We are grateful to partners from the Swiss-Ukrainian project DECIDE for supporting the initiative, which will be useful for teachers, parents with students, and those who monitor the quarantine situation in Ukraine”, – said the acting Minister of Education and Science Lyubomira Mandziy.

The information resource contains key information about changes in the work of kindergartens, schools, vocational schools, universities and colleges. In particular, it contains relevant information on the completion of the school year in schools, this year external independent evaluation and the introductory campaign.

The site also contains useful information for teachers – on the mode of work, salaries, leave, certification, filling class magazines, tools for distance learning and the like. Info resource also collected contacts of institutions and services that are useful if you need to clarify information.

If the quarantine mode changes or new decisions are made through it in the education system, the information on the site will be updated.

The campaign “Learning and studying in quarantine: changes in the education system” was developed with the support of the Swiss Confederation as part of the implementation of the Swiss-Ukrainian project DECIDE – “Decentralization for the Development of Democratic Education”.

Recall, on April 13, 2020, at an extraordinary meeting, the Verkhovna Rada adopted amendments to the State Budget. Thanks to the joint efforts of the Ministry of Education and Science and the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Education, Science and Innovation, the budget managed to maintain funding for key MON programs.
