Международная школа «Контакт»

Russian state accreditation, held not by the school as a whole but by its educational programmes: on an accredited programme a leaver receives the Russian state-issued certificate. Institutions abroad are gathered in the registry under a code of their own, and their certificates carry a term - twelve years from issue. No visit to the school is intended: since 2022 the indicators are calculated from documents and returns.

What the badge means for this school. The school holds Russian state accreditation, and that can be checked in the open registry. It means the right to award the Russian certificate on the accredited programmes - and nothing about the quality of teaching, the premises or the school's international programme. Levels of education are accredited separately, so it is worth checking whether the accreditation reaches the final year. The entry stands in the organisation's public register - anyone can check it.

The Russian school programme: a state-issued leaving certificate used for entry to Russian universities. The certificate is awarded on the results of the state final attestation - the OGE after Year 9 and the EGE after Year 11.

What this means for this school. This school holds Russian state accreditation: its education programmes have been checked by the Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science, and the entry is visible in the open register. Accreditation is granted level by level, so the main question here is whether it runs as far as the final year: a school may have the right to award a certificate for Year 9 and not for Year 11.
