The latest law proposal (see below) to reduce the length of secondary schooling, if implemented, would create a nice natural experiment to see the effect of years of schooling on wages and other variables, especially since not long ago the duration was increased from 11 to 12!
At the same time, whether it would be good for Ukraine is another issue - in my eyes, Ukraine does not suffer from 'over'- education...

"People's Self-Defense Bloc MP Anatoliy Hrytsenko has submitted for consideration by parliament a bill of amendments to some Ukrainian laws on the introduction of a ten-year period of study required to receive complete general secondary education.
According to the bill, pupils will be enrolled to general educational institutions from the age of seven years, rather than six years as it happens now. The document proposes a reduction of in the period of study at schools from 12 to ten years - three years (1-3 years of study) at general educational institutions of the first degree, five years (4-8 years of study) at general educational institutions of the second degree, and two years (9-10 years of study) at general educational institutions of the third degree."
