Abstract

The aim of the study is to establish a link between the level of achievement of teams in the International Physical Olympiads and the attention of the respective countries to the development of physical and mathematical education. The research was carried out on the basis of generalization and analysis of the collected original material and based on the accumulated experience of scientific and pedagogical work with gifted youth in physics. As a result of the research, the collected generalized and systematized information is presented in a form that clearly represents the level of achievements of the teams of the world’s leading countries at the International Physical Olympiads of different years. The list of countries whose teams consistently achieve high results has been clarified. The most significant and stable were the results of teams from mainly Asian countries, including China, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, India, Thailand, Vietnam, as well as Russia and the United States. It is determined that the ratings of national teams on the results of competitions for a long time remain almost unchanged. For the first time, it has been clearly shown that the level and stability of the successes achieved by the teams at the International Physical Olympiads are determined by the attitude of the respective states to the development of science and education. It is concluded that any outstanding achievements are based on three prerequisites: the availability of appropriate abilities, motivation and ability to implement the planned. Fulfillment of the above prerequisites for physical and mathematical education in countries whose teams have proved to be stable leaders of the International Physical Olympiads has led to the achievement of appropriate results and gaining worldwide recognition and respect.
