What is the best way to evaluate the quality of education? The RAEX rating agency decided to approach this issue from a practical perspective.

The company's experts have compiled a list of the 100 best schools in Russia in 2020, whose students are most likely to enter the 48 most famous universities in the country.

Here is the ranking of Russian schools in 2020, which were in the top ten of RAEX.

10. Moscow School in the South-West No. 1543, Moscow

From the very foundation back in Soviet times, this school was considered special. The principal of the school, Yuri Zavelsky, recruited talented teachers there and specially created specialized classes for them — mathematical, biological, and chemical.

During his directorship of more than 40 years, Zavelsky published many talented students and just students with good connections (among them, for example, Maxim Galkin). However, getting into their number is not easy - as the parents say, the child should begin to prepare with a tutor one or two years before entering school.

9. Vologda Multidisciplinary Lyceum, Vologda

A rare "northern bird" among Muscovites, the Vologda Lyceum was originally created with the expectation of working with gifted and talented children. And how to separate a gifted person from a mere mortal? That's right by having exams.

To get at least a chance at an elite education, a child should be trained with tutors or sent to a preparatory, paid school at the lyceum. And then comes the selection, comparable in its rigidity with admission to the astronauts.

But the graduates of the Lyceum more than once took the bar of 100 points in the USE, won in many olympiads (the oblast completed with a maximum score of more than 500 people) and entered the leading universities of the country.

8. School number 2007, Moscow

Since its inception, this educational institution has focused on elite education, and getting there was not easy. For admission to the holy of holies of physical and mathematical education, the child needs not only to pass exams, but also provide diplomas of the winner (or at least the prize-winner) of the Olympiads.

But after admission, you will not be able to relax - as the teachers themselves and former students say, all the time (both educational and free) will be devoted to mathematics and / or physics. Hobby? Have to forget about him. Weekend? There are circles for that. School break? A math school in the Crimea is waiting for your child with open arms. But the USE results at school No. 2007 are among the best in Moscow (and in 2018 were the highest).

7. Kapitsa, Dolgoprudny

Seventh place in the ranking of the best Russian schools is located in the city of Dolgoprudny near Moscow. In this physical and technical lyceum the natural direction prevails - physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics. In recent years, fashionable programming has also been added.

Children from the street will not get here - they need to be specially prepared for the requirements of the school. And in 2019, the chances of “simple” elite education fell even lower. It was announced that the school is changing state status to private and becoming an autonomous non-profit organization. In honor of which, parents began to charge tuition fees in the amount of 10 thousand rubles per month.

6. Presidential Physics and Mathematics Lyceum No. 239, St. Petersburg

By the number of elite schools, the northern capital is followed by the northern capital (9 schools of St. Petersburg versus 50 schools of Moscow). And one of them is school number 239, which is not simple, but with traditions. She recently celebrated her centenary.

Since the beginning of the 60s of the last century, the lyceum began to specialize in the physical and mathematical field, so successfully that since then it has been stably among the top schools in Russia. From 2015 to 2019, he generally ranked first. And the number of winners of olympiads in this educational institution is measured in hundreds.

As the parents say, the reason for the school’s success is in the tough selection of the most talented children, from whom they then methodically screen out “random” children for better reporting results. High competition, stringent requirements, exhausting loads lead to a high degree of stress in children. But knowledge requires sacrifice.

5. Republican Lyceum for Gifted Children, Saransk

Among the old-school schools, the Saransk Lyceum is a beginner (he is only 9 years old). However, over the years, students have earned 20 olympiad medals, not regional, but international. For several years in a row, the lyceum has been among the top ten most prestigious schools throughout Russia.

The school principal claims that the goal of its creation was to give talented Mordovian children a start in life, to provide starting conditions for young minds, especially those prone to natural and exact sciences. And the republican authorities can both pay extra for teachers who have prepared Olympic medalists and provide cash prizes to the children themselves.

True, Moscow is not slumbering - it is already luring the talented winners of the Olympiads, promising them a "salary" ten times more (300 thousand rubles for a victory in the All-Russian Olympiad against 30 thousand rubles that the republic can pay). Already several children thus “changed their residence permit”. We will find out in a few years how the battle of wallets for the opportunity to attach the winning Olympiad star to the flag of the school will end.

4. University gymnasium of Moscow State University, Moscow

This educational institution was opened just four years ago, in 2016. “Grammar School of Moscow State University” - not an empty phrase; classes at the school are taught by teachers directly from the University. Gifted schoolchildren from all over Russia are recruited in grades 8-11. To get into the list of 350 favorites, students have to pass the entrance exams in several stages.

But then everything around will contribute to the awakening of their creative thoughts - starting from training according to a special plan that combines the traditional lesson system with non-linear (whatever that means) activities and ending with the original rooms.

According to the founders of the institution, the original design of the institution should inspire students to original thinking. And apparently, it is so, because the school is considered one of the best in Russia in terms of the number of winners of olympiads and graduates.

3. Physics and mathematics lyceum №31, Chelyabinsk

Siberians in the number of the best schools in Russia in the competitiveness of graduates are not much behind Tatarstan. If in Kazan and the region there are five such schools, then in the Novosibirsk and Chelyabinsk regions there are four. One of them is a lyceum in Chelyabinsk.

According to the director, the reason for the success of the institution entrusted to his cares is the high quality of teaching, a well-coordinated team and the continuation of the traditions of Soviet education.

As usual, to continue the traditions of the elite school, an appropriate level of students is required. Therefore, they recruit to school through exams starting from grade 5. To be among the elect, the child will have to make serious efforts: go to courses, study with tutors and go through the screening of hard entrance exams. And then study. But for those who have completed school, there is a real chance to enter out of the competition according to the results of the olympiads won.

2. Lyceum "Second School", Moscow

Like many other top schools in Russia in 2020, the lyceum has a long and glorious history in the physical and mathematical direction, to which chemistry, biology and the humanitarian direction were subsequently added.

Recruitment to the Lyceum is from grades 6 and 8, according to the results of exams. In addition to the day school, the main one, there is also an evening school (something like an expanded system of circles), where children from grades 2 to 7 study.

By the number of winners of the Olympiads and scored 100 points in the exam, "Second School" is among the best in Moscow and the region. Its program has nothing to do with the school program - all its own, according to its own materials. The load on students is great, they have to study at least six out of seven days a week. At the same time, the four is considered a very good mark, and to get the five you need to deal with the extended program.

1. SUNTS Moscow State University, Moscow

The SSC is one of four schools founded in the 60s of last year by a special decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR with the aim of replenishing physical and mathematical personnel for the country. Academician Kolmogorov, who stood at its origins, saw as his main and main task the awakening of the creative spirit among talented youth.

It is difficult to say anything definite about this most elusive creative spirit, but at the moment, the SSC is one of the most powerful schools in Russia in terms of the level of training of its students. Selected there, of course, on a competitive basis, in two rounds. Moreover, it is alleged that communications do not play any role. The main selection criterion is the level of knowledge of the child.

Even with the most competitive school in Russia, there is a special summer version of it. It is a cross between exams and trial training, so that the child and parents can understand if they need it at all. Based on the results of the child’s education, points are awarded, and the higher their number, the more chances to get into the school-scientific elite of the country.
