The research on the current situation of school subjects was launched in the spring of 2001. The project aimed to examine 16 separate subjects taught in the Hungarian educational system (primarily for students in the 10-14 age group) in order to determine how these had been affected as a result of modernisation and content regulation taking place during the 1990s, and also to identify areas in need of further development.
