  3. Primary School • Called Dimotika • Ages 6-7 are in First Dimotika, 7-8 Second Dimotika, etc • In the first two Dimotika students receive verbal feedback instead of grades for assignments • Grading begins in Third Dimotika, at ages 8-9 • Written Exams begin in Fifth Dimotika, at ages 10-11 -Ends with Sixth Dimotika, ages 11-12

  5. Secondary School (Cont’d) • Moves on to Lyceum -can either be a general academics institution, much like our highschools, or a vocational school -movement into Lyceum is voluntary -there are three years of Lyceum, First Lyceum through Third Lyceum, with ages ranging from 15-18

  6. Tertiary School • Referred to as Higher Education Institutions • Two types : Vocational and Training Institutes • Vocational Institutes further instruct individuals who have graduated from a vocational Lyceum in their respective fields • Work on a minimum of 4 years per degree

  7. Training Institutes • Training Institutes are much like our colleges, but without core classes • Entrance into Training Institutes do not require prior education success, instead, they require applicants to pass a test based on the schools focus • Some Technological Institutes take students directly from Computer Science Vocational Lyceum as a prerequisite instead of testing

  8. Vocational Institutes • These schools require a diploma from a Vocational Lyceum • Applicants may also be accepted into Vocational Institutes based on prior experience in said vocation as well as the passing of a written exam
