The long-awaited day has arrived for students who completed the eighth grade this year. On Monday, they will finally learn which secondary school or gymnasium they will attend next academic year. The final results of the distribution of students among secondary schools and educational profiles have been released, marking the conclusion of a significant phase in their educational journey. These results determine where each student will continue their studies based on their performance in the final exam and their expressed preferences during the application process.
The Ministry of Education had previously announced that the final results would be published on June 29th. This date was set after the completion of the final exams held on June 15th, 16th, and 17th. Students took tests in three subjects over these days: the first day focused on the native language and literature, the second on mathematics, and the third on an elective subject such as biology, geography, history, physics, or chemistry. The results were made public earlier than anticipated, on Sunday, June 21st, at 9 p.m., via the "Moja srednja škola" website. This early release came ahead of the schedule outlined in the calendar for conducting the final exam at the end of primary education.
According to the data provided, approximately 64,400 students participated in the final exam, while there are around 72,000 available spots in secondary schools. This indicates that there should be enough places for all students, alleviating concerns about potential shortages. Deputy Minister of Education Danka Nešović emphasized that there was no reason for worry, as the number of available spots exceeds the number of students taking the exam.
Students who passed the final exam and met the required conditions for enrollment in secondary schools filled out their preference lists between June 23rd and 24th. Deputy Minister Ivan Ćilerdžić advised students to carefully consider their choices when filling out the form, aligning their selections with the number of points they achieved. He urged them to complete the entire form, including all 20 options or at least 15, to ensure that they would be placed according to their stated preferences in the first round of allocation.
The average scores obtained by students showed that their performance was comparable to that of previous years. However, some differences were noted. This year's students performed slightly better in the mathematics test and the third test, while the average scores in the native language test were marginally lower compared to last year’s results. These variations highlight the fluctuating nature of student performance across different subjects.
As the final results are now known, students and parents alike are preparing for the upcoming enrollment process. The enrollment into secondary schools will take place electronically, but students also have the option to participate in person. Specific time frames for enrollment have been communicated, ensuring that students can make their choices within designated periods.
With the publication of the final results, the focus shifts to the next steps in the enrollment process. Students will need to confirm their placements, and schools will begin preparing for the new academic year. The overall goal remains clear: to provide every student with access to a secondary education that aligns with their abilities and aspirations. As the transition from primary to secondary education begins, the emphasis continues to be on fairness, transparency, and accessibility in the allocation process.
