Agia Varvara Regional Gymnasium was founded in January 1993. It is a public high school in the suburbs of Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus and hosts 412 students with ages varying between 12-15. One third of students live in the area of the village of Agia Varvara whilst the remaining two-thirds are from the nearby villages. These is a total of 51 teachers working at this school, the majority of whom work full time while others work on a part-time basis because they also work part-time at other schools in the Nicosia area.

All students are taught a variety of obligatory subjects such as Greek, English, French, Maths, Physics, Computers, Gymnastics, History, Biology, Technology, Music, Art, Ancient Greek and Home Economics. 

Secondary education, which is also free like pre-primary and primary education, is open without examination to all children who complete primary schooling. Secondary education extends over six years (12-18). It is divided in two cycles, each consisting of three grades: the lower or Gymnasium (12-15) and the upper or Lyceum (15-18). In Cyprus, education is compulsory up to the age of fifteen and almost 100 per cent of students reach this level because education in Cyprus has a high priority in all social groups. 

Despite the rapidly expanding economy with technicians and skilled workers, Cypriots retain a tendency to choose academic rather than technical courses, for reasons of social prestige, and currently Cyprus faces a chronic shortage of skilled workers.
