Graduating Students to Take Varied State Maturity Exams Starting in 2025/2026
New legislation regarding secondary education will result in a tiered system of final exams for this year’s graduating students. The system will encompass three distinct types of state maturity assessments: general, vocational, and artistic. The State Examination Center (QSHP) has established a schedule for the 2025/2026 academic year.
For students pursuing general state maturity, external examinations will be administered over two terms. The initial phase, commencing on June 6th, will feature assessments in elective subjects, including English, French, German, Russian, Italian, mathematics, and history. Subsequently, on June 11th, students will take their examination in Macedonian, Albanian, Turkish, or Serbian – their native language and literature.
Vocational school students will undertake their initial internal examinations on June 6th, selecting between English and mathematics. These exams are designed to evaluate proficiency in specialized skills. The QSHP’s calendar details a structured approach to ensuring consistent standards across all levels of the new secondary education framework.

This new exam system seems complex, and I hope students are adequately prepared for the different assessments.
