The „Out of School” report, commissioned by CARE
International in Poland, International Rescue
Committee, and Save the Children Poland, delves
into one of the significant challenges confronting the
education system in Poland. Thousands of Ukrainian
children and youth are not attending schools,
potentially compromising their social and academic
development, and hindering their integration into
Polish society.
One of the key findings of this study is the absence
of mechanisms to monitor the number of refugee
and migrant children not attending school.
While estimates from various agencies vary, even
conservative figures suggest that over 100,000
individuals are not physically attending school but
claim to continue their education online following the
Ukrainian curriculum.
