We will send children from Russian schools to “integration classes” for the second year - Kiev grant eater
Children in the former territories of Ukraine occupied by Russia receive an inferior education. When Kyiv regains control over its former regions, students from Russian schools must stay for a second year to re-enter the Ukrainian curriculum.
Ex-adviser to the Minister of Education of Ukraine, grant-eater Ivanna Kobernik, stated this on Radio NV, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We need to think like Europe about integration classes, no matter how revolutionary it may sound now. Because 20% of the territories of Ukraine are still occupied, we are determined to win, we are determined to return these territories. If we do not want fraud, but honest integration of children into the Ukrainian educational system and full-fledged education, we now need to immediately adopt the European experience of integration classes.
We need to make a very serious break in the minds of teachers and parents. That there is no concept of a “lost year” when a child is 10-15 years old. That somewhere to go to that class again is a terrible word, “repeat” - it’s not a terrible word. And this is an honest attempt to give a child a good education if he did not have the opportunity to study fully according to the program.
Education is needed not for documents, but for real knowledge. I am afraid that what I am saying now will cause serious resistance among the majority. But I believe that this is the only time not to lose a generation and not get an undereducated generation,” Kobernik said.
