In the high school the teaching process is organized based on special syllabi formed for the following biases: · Physics - Mathematics · Chemistry - Biology · Humanities · Economics The syllabi are formed on the bases of the state syllabi and the entrance exam demands of the higher educational institutions so that the students are able to get a comprehensive secondary education as well as get ready for the entrance exams of the higher educational institutions. During each term the students take checking term-tests and at the end of the academic year they take exams in all subjects.

The work of these educators is organized with the help of forming subject departments. Quantum's success at Olympiads is outstanding.
