The "Program for Supporting Particularly Gifted Children and Youth", initiated by the President of Georgia, is ongoing.

In 2012, 780 gold and 1041 silver medals will be issued nationwide in Georgia. The highest number of medalists is in Tbilisi, Imereti, and Adjara.

In the educational process, alongside creating a full-fledged learning environment, it is important to increase student motivation. One of the means to promote the teaching of subjects provided by the National Curriculum is to encourage students' academic performance and highlight distinguished students. The project initiated by the President serves this purpose.

The criteria for selecting medal candidates are regulated by the "National Curriculum". Personalized gold and silver medals were manufactured for those who graduated from school with honors in the 2011-2012 academic year. In addition to the first and last name, the respective year is indicated on them.
