“Today there is no alternative to the unified state exam.

There are issues that can be discussed and implemented,” he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

Muzaev noted that there are no risks in the transition to another educational model, and also admitted the possibility of transforming the exam.

As State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin noted earlier, the current education system in Russia needs to be changed, and it is impossible to blindly copy the Western model in this area.

At the same time, Deputy Head of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science Pyotr Kucherenko said that the modernization of the Russian education system does not mean its isolation from the outside world.
