Leros mayor Timotheos Kottakis congratulating university entrance candidates

Leros mayor Timotheos Kottakis issued a public message congratulating every candidate after the release of Greece's national university entrance examination results and wished them success in the next stage of their efforts.

In his letter, Mr Kottakis also addressed the examination process itself, arguing that knowledge should be a right available to everyone throughout life.

He said the annual announcement of national examination marks was extremely important for pupils, teachers and parents across Greece.

He congratulated all candidates and expressed the hope that they would continue working towards the fulfilment of their ambitions.

Mr Kottakis said Greece had delayed for decades in abolishing what he described as the psychologically exhausting national examination process.

The right to knowledge belonged to everyone at every stage of life, he said, adding that Greece in particular had no right to deny people access to education.
