Ukrainian Externum Programme story

The 2020 - 2021 school year marked another busy and successful year in developing the Ukraine Externum Programme with our local students.

LLC Pechersk International School holds a licence to offer general secondary education in Ukraine. Due to this licence, the school is able to independently conduct examinations based on the secondary school programme and issue a nationally recognised education certificate (diplomas and certificates) in addition to the Bachelor’s degree in the territory of Ukraine .

The programme of the Ukrainian school represents an extra education programme based on the national standards of Ukraine for the LLC Pechersk International School students studying the Ukrainian language or willing to get an education certificate in Ukraine.

The students will study a few additional subjects, such as:

  • Ukrainian language
