Law

The court structure is tripartite. The highest courts in Athens are the Areopagus (civil and criminal law), the Council of State (administrative law) and the Court of Auditors. In 1975 a special supreme court consisting of members of the three supreme courts was created. decides on the validity of elections and referendums or in disputes between courts. The lower levels of the judicial system are made up of magistrate courts and justice of the peace as well as district and appellate courts.

Greek law is in parts strongly influenced by German and French law. The Civil Code, which has been in force since February 23, 1946, is influenced by the German Civil Code and is divided into five books (general part, law of obligations, property and property law, family law, inheritance law) in a similar way to this. In addition, it goes back to basics from Roman and Byzantine law. A new code of civil procedure has been in force since 1968. In the past, commercial law was particularly influenced by French; in the 19th century the code de commerce was adopted as the Greek commercial code. The Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure came into force in 1951. Administrative law is more recent and largely not codified.

Education

Education is administered by the Ministry of National Education and Religious Affairs. In addition to public schools, there are private schools at all levels under state supervision. Higher education institutions administer themselves under the supervision of the ministry. According to the 1985 School Act, pre-school education is part of the primary level and is offered in kindergartens (Nipiagogeio) up to the age of 6. State preschool offers are free of charge. Schooling is compulsory between the ages of 6 and 15 with free lessons in primary and secondary levels. The compulsory period is divided into primary education in the “Dimotiko Scholeio” (6–12 years) and the general secondary level I “Gymnasio” (12–15 years). Ancient Greek and English as a foreign language are compulsory subjects for all pupils. The second foreign language taught is mainly French or German. Higher secondary education can be completed in three years at the Eniaia Lykeia. In the vocational school system, the Institutes for Vocational Training (IEK) also offer non-university-related vocational training after completing secondary level I.

Higher education is offered at universities (Anotata Ekpedeftika Idrimata) and technical colleges (Technologika Ekpaideftika Idrimata). The prerequisite is the completion of the upper secondary level and the passing of the nationwide uniform entrance examination for the higher education sector. In 1997 the first Greek distance learning university was founded. Private universities are not allowed in Greece.
