Summary/Abstract: The EU Rural Vision 2040 assumes that skilled, educated and motivated people will be in rural areas to make them stronger, connected, resilient and prosperous. The paper aims to look deeper in the status of the school educational system and its results in the peripheral rural areas in Bulgaria and into their perspectives to respond and benefit from the EU Rural Vision policy initiative. The results urge the educational, rural and regional development policy makers to undertake specific and targeted actions to address the school educational gap in the peripheral rural areas.
