The Ministry of Education and Science has approved the School Textbook Catalog and completed the transfer of funds to the accounts of eligible parents as a subsidy for students’ textbooks from the first through the ninth grade for this school year.

According to the Ministry’s announcement, applications by parents and legal guardians began on July 27 through the eKosova platform. Each submitted application was checked by authorized coordinators at schools, while the verified lists were finally reviewed by the relevant ministry commission.

After the verification process was completed, the list of beneficiaries was forwarded to the Ministry of Finance, which carried out the transfer of funds to the parents’ bank accounts.

The Ministry also announced that it had held negotiations with publishing houses to determine the final retail prices of school textbooks. The negotiating commission prepared the final report on the results of this process.

Based on this report and its legal authorizations, the Ministry of Education and Science approved the official School Textbook Catalog, which sets the final prices for each textbook. These prices are mandatory at all school textbook sales outlets.

The catalog has been published online and can be found at this link: https://mash.rks-gov.net/…/katalogu-i-tekste…/ .
