worlds of different kinds: universe,
nature, society/other human beings,

towards these goals. Most schools and universities across China were due to begin

school students, enabling access to study materials via smart phone, computer or

HISTORY OF EDUCATION IN RUSSIA
• It is also worth noting that despite the major issues spotlighted by the
pandemic, Russia’s response in the educational sphere has been about on par
with that of other nations. Steps have been taken to allow international
students to continue their education, both online and eventually in person.
Problems and Challenges in Education
• Russia has implemented reforms aimed at giving pupils an
equal shot at a good education. But the introduction of
centralized university entrance exams has so far failed to end
corruption in the school system.
• University education was mainly reserved for the offspring of
urban, high-income families. Russians from rural areas had to
get by with the equivalent of a high school diploma or
vocational training.
• But deeper and more serious problems in the educational
system remain. Sergeyev notes that corruption is still prevalent,
shifting away from the university admissions process but
settling instead in secondary schools.
