Monkevicius: I am going to listen, support and help.

“I come with intention to compromise with the whole education system’s society. I am going to listen, support and help, all for the sake our students and teachers” – said Algirdas Monkevicius, the Minister of Education and Science.

The guest of our Political Salon has promised that he will profoundly examine the case of the Polish school-leaving exam of Lithuanian language and literature and investigate the reason why the results of this exam among the graduates of Polish schools are worse. The Minister also promised to consider the issue of the recognition of the Polish language and literature exam, so that the result of the exam also be taken into account when entering higher education institutions.
