Children of Ukrainian refugees in Poland will be required to attend local schools

Ukrainian children in Poland will be required to attend local schools. Preparation of the corresponding bill by the Polish Ministry of Education is already in its final stages.

This information reported according to the country’s Deputy Minister of Education, Joanna Muha.

“The Ukrainian side is very interested in obliging Ukrainian children to attend Polish schools. They offer cooperation, and we are using this offer. Most of this program is already prepared; we are awaiting the law’s approval,” Muha said.

It is known preliminarily that Ukrainian language lessons will be introduced for Ukrainian children in Polish schools. To accomplish this, teachers from Ukraine will be employed.

According to official data, 50,000-60,000 Ukrainian children in Poland are not covered by the Polish education system.
