Students showed less interest in secondary schools: Some programmes remained unfilled

The article reports on a decrease in student interest for some high schools in Zagreb this year, particularly among the most sought-after institutions. Final enrollment lists were completed on Friday, with over 38,000 students enrolling. The final lists will be published on Tuesday, July 7th, after which summer enrollments begin. Some schools, such as the popular MIOC gymnasium and the Vladimir Prelog Natural Science School, reported lower numbers of applicants compared to previous years, especially for their international IB programs and other specialized tracks. While some schools still saw higher applications than available spots, others noted fewer applicants for their general gymnasium programs. School principals attributed the drop partly to students choosing to take entrance exams at alternative schools, but they emphasized that academic performance remains a critical factor in admissions. Parents described the enrollment process as stressful, primarily due to competition.
