The Republic of Slovenia lies at the heart of Europe , where the Alps  face the Pannonian plains. A Mediterranean climate along the coast , lush vineyards and fields of sunflowers inland, virgin forests, snow capped mountains and sky resorts . Slovenia is a country of many natural and cultural treasures. The Slovenian school system has seen a number of changes in recent years, aiming to ensure that as many people as possible realize their right to education, better than before, thus achieving a higher educational level.

The education system in Slovenia is almost fully financed from the state budget; a small share of the finance is also contributed from municipal budgets.

Public expenditure for education includes expenditure on basic compulsory, secondary and tertiary institutions, as well as the running costs of pre-school education, post-graduate study and expenditure related to boarding at some secondary schools and in university student’s accommodation.
