A new system of specialized education is starting in Ukraine: what to expect for students.

The changes that will be introduced when students enter senior specialized school in 2027 will allow students to independently choose their study direction and subjects according to their preferences and future plans. The organization of academic lyceums and vocational training institutions will provide students from all regions with more opportunities to receive quality education. Career orientation is planned to begin in the fifth grade, and in the ninth grade, students will have to choose between an academic lyceum and a vocational college. To assist students in choosing a specialized direction, independent subject selection for study and the possibility of adding interesting courses to the program will be provided. Starting from the tenth grade, students will be able to adapt and choose a specialization. The new initiative aims to support students in discovering their abilities and assist them in choosing their personal path in the future.
