46 schools in Ungheni district move to the state, with 72.5% of the district budget — public documents do not say whether the district gains or loses

The Government has approved the draft «Restart in Education» reform, which still has to be voted by Parliament: from 1 January 2027, primary schools, gymnasiums, lyceums and special education move from district councils to Territorial Agencies for Education, subordinated to the ministry. District education departments are abolished. In Ungheni district this means 46 institutions with 11,061 pupils, and the segment that leaves amounts to 335.5 million lei, that is 72.5% of the district budget. The Ministry of Finance calculated that 14 district councils gain from the reform and 18 lose — but it did not publish the list, and Ungheni is not among the examples named.

Lyceum admission 2026 in Ungheni: eight lyceums, the full calendar and how the competition average is calculated

The Ungheni Education Department opened admission to the 10th grade for the 2026–2027 school year on Monday, 13 July. Eight lyceums in the district receive files — five in the town of Ungheni and one each in Pîrlița, Sculeni and Măcărești — while Cornești has no lyceum, so its graduates must look elsewhere. Files are submitted until 22 July, online or on paper, and a pupil may apply to several lyceums at once. Here is the list of institutions, the two-stage calendar, the required documents, how the competition average is calculated for the real and humanities profiles, and who is admitted without competition.
