The public lottery for admission to the experimental schools was completed earlier this Friday afternoon.

“Experimentals are a pillar of our strategy for the continuous improvement of schools, contributing to the introduction and evaluation of innovations in the educational process,” said the Minister of Education, Religion and Sports, Kyriakos Pierrakakis, in a post on social networks.

The minister, who attended the public lottery process, added about the increased number of applications for admission to the Experimental schools: “The great interest shown by parents reflects the very good work done in the Experimental schools and is a motivation for us to constantly strengthen their operation and impact on education”.

It is recalled that a total of 10,845 applications were submitted this year to fill 3,003 vacant positions in the territory’s experimental schools.

In addition, the process of assigning a random number of priority, in case of a tie in Standard schools, was also completed today.
