Foreign Language Education in Slovakia

Students in Slovakia generally learn two foreign languages. English is commonly the first foreign language, and students can often choose a second foreign language from options like German, French, Russian, or Spanish, depending on the school. The availability of specific languages may vary between schools.

The Slovak education system consists of primary and secondary education. Lower secondary education includes grades 5 to 9. In two-year lower secondary vocational education programs, foreign language is not included in the "Language and Communication" educational area.

A reform of the national curriculum for primary and lower secondary education was implemented in September 2023, focusing on 21st-century skills. Bilingual programs are offered, mainly at grammar schools, with intensive foreign language preparation and some subjects taught in the foreign language.
