This document is an English language abstract (approximately 1,500 words) of the reform provisions of the Bulgarian education system as formulated by the Bulgarian Communist Party in 1969. These reforms include the following items: access to compulsory secondary education for all; enrollment of all six-year olds; teachers to be specialized from the fourth grade on; curriculum and organizational modifications; vocational training for dropouts; reorganization of teacher training; extension of school boarding facilities; creation of new types of higher education institutions; greater administrative responsibility for senior academic staff members; greater ideological indoctrination. The complete recasting of the teacher training system will make it possible for teachers to play a greater role in implementing the above reforms. The theoretical and scientific level of the teaching is to be raised; obsolete data and details will be eliminated from courses. Mathematics, science, and language education are in need of upgrading.
