Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a new directive aimed at raising standards in the education system. The Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science (Rosobrnadzor) has been tasked with analyzing the extent to which Russian language and literature textbooks used in schools align with the tasks of the Unified State Exam (EGE).
The Kremlin press service announced the directive in a list released after a meeting of the Presidential Council on implementing state policy to support the Russian language and the languages of Russia's peoples.
Based on the analysis, Rosobrnadzor will be responsible for aligning the content of the exam materials with the unified state series of Russian language and literature textbooks.
According to the directive, a report on the matter must be submitted by March 1, 2028, and the study must then be repeated once a year. Responsibility for the work has been assigned to Rosobrnadzor head Anzor Muzaev.
