Abstract:
In this paper I aimed to outline an analysis of the current educational policies developed by the Ministry
of National Education applied at the level of pre-university and university education in Romania. The present
research captures aspects regarding the modern educational policies elaborated to be applied at the level of the
Romanian education, the way of their implementation and the results obtained. The research will be carried out
at national level in the period 2016-2019. In the research I used the observation method based on the description
of policies developed by MEN. Secondly, we analyzed the reports on the state of Romanian education and
outlined the positive and negative aspects regarding the state of education in our country. The results highlight
that, MEN continues the reforms in the field of education and training, in order to ensure an education adapted
to the demands of the labor market, centered on personal and social development, with a positive impact on
preventing and combating early school leaving and school dropout. MEN continues to carry out annual social
programs in order to support students from disadvantaged areas, by creating conditions for providing equal
opportunities for education for students from high risk groups.
