Abstract. The article presents the results of didactic tests that were conducted with 46 students from “Yane Sandanski” Primary School, Plovdiv, who underwent STEM training in biology and health education (7th grade) during the 2022/2023 school year. Some of the questions measure the degree of students‘ cognitive skills for analysis, evaluation and creation. Related problem-solving and critical thinking skills top the list of job skills of the future. The results achieved by the students show an increase in their higher order thinking skills. The obtained data demonstrate a positive impact of STEM education in biology and health education on the formation and development of these skills necessary for the successful realization of modern students.
