At Janusz Korczak Primary, a school in the Warsaw district of Mokotow , almost every class has new pupils. Some have as many as six. Poland’s government has raised caps that usually limit the size of classes. Staff are pleased to be helping. But no one thinks it is ideal to be plonking the new arrivals straight into normal lessons, when few speak much Polish. Some teachers have been asking Ukrainian children who were already enrolled before the crisis to help them communicate with newcomers.
If all this is messy, Ukraine’s refugee children are getting more help than is commonly offered elsewhere in the world. Last year the UN guessed that only about half of all children who had fled across an international border were getting lessons of any kind. Among children old enough to attend secondary school, only one-third were attending classes . Lost years of schooling damage youngsters’ prospects long after the turmoil they fled from has ended.
