Joanna Klukiz-Rostkowska, the Polish Minister of education, announced at the seating in Białystok on Monday that as much as EUR 900 million will be spend on regional voacational schools in the next few years.
She emphasized that the vocational educational system needs to be "rebuild" so that secondary technical schools as well as vocational schools cease to be only the "second and wrose choice". In Klukiz-Rutkowska's opinion the half of high school graduates should not go to university but choose the vocation and technical schools because Poland needs also such workers.
The Minister stressed that those schools do not yet respond to the market needs and should start educating students in this way that their knowledge will be crucial for entrepreneurs. For this and other changes EUR 900 million will be distributed between regions. However first voivodship marshalls as well as the schools have to know how to make clever use of this money.
