This year Armenia is celebrating Teacher's Day on October 5.
Ashot Bleyan, director of Mkhitar Sebastatsi educational complex, says today schools have numerous problems and the lack of spirituality is the most important among them.
"If you are not imbued with this idea, you cannot carry out the mission of transferring it to next generations," he stressed.
Regarding the problems of teachers, Mr Bleyan said, "Teacher are paid lower salaries and as far as I know, no changes are expected in this regard in the next three years."
The director of the educational complex says all positive changes made in the sector are structural but meaningless.
"They heat schools, repair buildings but do not introduce essential changes in the content. Why should a person learn 12 years at school, then four years in the university and join the ranks of the unemployed and leave the country? 12 years of learning could be justified if a person became a specialist and earned his bread with it," Mr Bleyan concluded.
