“Around 1-2% of all school children were not included in the process of education during the state of emergency. The big challenge during this period was with those who simply do not want to get an education,” said Minister of Education Krasimir Valchev for the BNR.

He pointed out that the Ministry of Education is ready to launch electronic learning in the autumn depending on the situation.

“Innovation culture is expanding. New curricula were introduced for all grades. For the first time we have adapted curricula for the schools abroad,” Minister Valchev said.
