Text 1. Education in Russia.

The citizens of Russia have the right to education. There are different schools in Russia: large, small, state and private. Eleven years are compulsory for all children. The school year begins in September and ends in May. When the Russian children finish secondary school they can go to the university or college.

As for me, I am a student of the professional lyceum. It is situated in Gubkin in Belgorod region. I am a first year student. Our PL trains skilled workers: borers, drivers, welders, electricians, locomotive and excavator drivers. The students receive a working trade and the secondary education.

Text 2. Vocational Training in Russia

Our national economy needs a great number of skilled workers. Modern workers must possess high skill and profound knowledge.

The first vocational schools in our country were opened in 1920. It was a hard time for the young country. Since that time more than 70 million skilled workers have finished these schools. They work at factories and plants, in mines and quarries, at leading construction projects and on collective farms. There are more than six thousand vocational schools in our country. They provide opportunities not only of learning a trade, but also of completing secondary education. The trainees have every opportunity to continue their education.

A worker of today needs as much general and specialized knowledge as a technician or an engineer of 50 years ago. And knowledge comes from the vocational schools.
