Greek education and school system

The main characteristic of the education system in Greece is its multi-faceted nature, which is ordered by the numerous laws and decrees of the Greek Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs. In fact, in Greece, the separation of Church and State has not been established and religions are managed in the same way as education. The adaptation of cutting-edge educational research and foreign educational practices to meet the needs of Greek society and the labor market has resulted in a multi-level education system that caters to all students in the country. Most students in Greece attend public schools at all levels, for which there are no tuition fees, while between 4 and 6.5% of the student population enroll in private schools. I’m Lisbob, the expats assistant, and I’m going to explain everything you need to know about how the Greek education system works.
