In Russia children start school at the age of 6 to 7. Their first academic year begins on the 1st of September. For the next 11 years of their lives September 1st will be a very special day for them -- back to school, studies, meeting their classmates, getting acquainted with new teachers and subjects.\nSchool in Russia is divided into primary school (grades 1-4), junior secondary school (grades 5-9) and senior secondary school (grades 10-11). Kids study for 5 or 6 days a week in primary school and 6 days in junior and senior secondary school. In most of the Russian Federation the academic year is divided into 4 terms with one- or two-week breaks between them and longer summer holidays. Some schools use a trimester system which divides the academic year into three terms.\nExams are an important part of school life. Students have to take them after their 9th and 11th years of study. Students completing junior secondary school take final examinations called the State Final Attestation (GIA), and if they pass the exams, they get the certificate. The certificate grants the students access to further studies. They may continue education in senior secondary school or go to a college. At the end of their 11th year at school students take the Uniform State Examination (EGE). If they pass the exams, they can apply to university.\nRussia also has a well-developed network of schools offering advanced programmes in selected disciplines such as foreign languages, fine arts, sports or mathematics. There are some schools in which senior grades work under the auspices of various universities including Lomonosov Moscow State University.
