Schools in Greece are run under the National Ministry of Education and Religion.The Greek Constitution stipulates that all children in Greece be educated free of charge. Attendance is compulsory until age 16.

Basic curriculum for primary school (demotiko) includes Math, Sciences, Social Studies, Modern Greek, Writing, Physical Education, Orthodox Religion, geography, history, and starting in 4th or 5th grade a foreign language.

In Junior High (gymnasio) students take a total of 14 or 15 courses per week. These include Modern Greek Grammar, French, English, Ancient Greek, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Geography, Religion, Physical Education, Literature, History, Music, Art.

In 10th grade the children decide between a track of courses.
One track is language and literature. Another is science and math. These are for children who plan to attend university.
The third is oriented to practical education of children who do not plan on going to university.

The Greek system is based upon learning by memorization. Children are not to think or innovate but parrot information from the textbooks. Each 8th grader in Greece has the same textbooks and usually is on the same lesson as every other 8th grader on the same day.

Control of curriculum come from the Ministry. There is no local input. Schools are administered at the state or provincial level.

Although the Constitution stipulates a free education, many, if not most, children study outside of school through a loose system private tutors (frontesteria). Many parents believe that without the tutorage the children will not progress. The price per hour per subject is between 12 to 15 Euros ($15.50 - $19.50 US). This can be very costly. Some children take 5 or 6 extra sessions per week.

Skopelosslim gave you very comprehensive information.

On the other hand, you could say that schools are ran ...by the dogs and this is even more comprehensive!
I'm really disappointed by the system, most of the teachers and almost by all the premises!
