TIRANA, June 15 /ATA/ – The Minister of Education and Sports Evis Kushi said Thursday that the amendments to the law on the pre-university education system, approved by parliament with 75 votes in favour, are devised to align the country’s legislation with the EU acquis.
In her remarks at parliament, Education Minister said that the amendments will contribute to improvement of quality in pre-university education system.
The changes are devised to transform special education schools into resource centers, according to the best models of the region and the EU, for more support for students with different abilities.
One of the proposed changes is that children who want to enter school but are not 6 years old when school starts can still register as long as their birthday is within December 31 they can start school. This is good news for all those children who are penalized only for a few days or a few months and are forced to attend school a year later.
“First, one of the reasons we decided to change the law was precisely the special schools for students with different abilities. We have seen not only in the region but also the developed countries of the EU for a better way of functioning, from the side of the structure of how they are organized, but also of the functioning,” the minister emphasized.
