About studies:

The aim of the school is a comprehensive preparation of students for universities, colleges and tertiary colleges (so called higher education) of all types above all and also a preparation for jobs after school-leaving exams. School-leavers gain wide knowledge in all subjects which can be seen in their successful passing the entrance exams to universities, colleges etc. A great importance is placed on sciences. Languages, computing and basic knowledge in economics are also paid a lot of attention. Two foreign languages (three lessons a week) and seminars in sciences are taught at school. A wide range of optional and voluntary subjects is offered according to the students' needs. Each year a lot of students attend conversation lessons in English which are taught not only by our English teachers but also by a native speaker.

Four-year and eight-year studies are opened at GJVJ each year. The students in the 3 rd and 4 th year (respectively in the 7 th and 8 th year) attend optional and voluntary subjects which they need for their further studies. Our students achieve great successes in applied economy - participation in the final of the competition in the U.S.A., they reached top placing in national competitions many times, the best students in this subject were chosen for an excursion to the U.S.A.
