School leaving exams begin on Monday

On May 6, high school leaving exams, an equivalent of A Levels, began. A total of 274,000 of this year's graduates of comprehensive and technical secondary schools took the obligatory written exam of the Polish language at the elementary level. An even larger number is expected at the maths exam on Tuesday, as those who wish to retake the exam from previous years will join their ranks. Along with this year's graduates, nearly 312,000 students will take part in this exam.

The results of the exams will be announced on July 4, 2019.
