Curriculum, Subjects, Number of Hours

The National Curriculum governs secondary education subjects, including Georgian language, mathematics, sciences, social sciences, and physical education. Foreign language instruction begins with English in grade 1, followed by a second foreign language in grade 5 (Article 5, Law on General Education). Vocational pathway (integrated programs which can be implemented by colleges or general educational institutions) is also available to students pursuing career-oriented education (Article 5).

Teaching Methods and Materials

Secondary teachers are encouraged to use interactive and critical thinking-based teaching methods. Schools must use textbooks approved by the Ministry of Education but may adopt additional teaching resources that suit their instructional needs. SEN students benefit from individualized teaching approaches and assistive technology, as outlined in their IEPs (Article 5, Law on General Education).
