Čaputová recalled a recent study, on the basis of which the results of higher education during the pandemic were evaluated as good. “The worse news is that as many as 39 percent of graduating students do not have comparable knowledge and are preparing for a high level after school.” The president stated that the students lacked internships and because of the isolation, important relationships for their personal development were not developed either.
University reform
The head of state recalled that when the public sees the pandemic as an opportunity, it must be acknowledged that the funds invested in education are not a waste of funds.
“It therefore opens up the possibility for us to revitalize our entire education system in the near future, and to reform our universities and colleges as part of this. And in this regard, I rely mainly on your input, “ she called on the president.
Quality education for young people
Čaputová reminded that Slovakia expects professors, teachers and university teachers to elevate universities to absolute centers of excellence in the field of education, research and society.
“We expect that you will provide our young people with quality education and the prospect of scientific research or self-realization of another household, so that they do not have to go abroad. We expect that the value of education and the voice of education will also earn you respect and respect in society, and that it will be even more active where science, knowledge, humanism and humanity are questioned. “ concluded by the head of state.
