Problems

Current status of schooling refugees

Why are there lots of schooling refugees?

Measures

What kind of measures are currently being taken?




Cause Possible causes
1
Because no investigation has been conducted

Local governments where many foreigners live may carry out their own surveys, but other local governments have not conducted any surveys, so it can be said that the national survey is still insufficient. If they don't know how many international kids are and why they are schooling refugees, we can't even think of countermeasures.

2
Because they can't support
international kids’s school lives

However, just enrolling children who cannot go to school does not provide a fundamental solution to the problem. Even if they go to school, if they can't understand the class, if they can't talk to anyone ... Even if they can enroll, if the school life is not going well, the children may not go to school again.

How to reduce “schooling refugees”
1
Understanding the current situation

First of all, it is important to recognize the importance of this problem by conducting a nationwide survey and to create an opportunity to think about countermeasures.

2
Creating an environment

Not only enrolling children who cannot go to school, but also creating an appropriate environment so that they will not interfere with the subsequent school life.

Is it difficult even if I’m able to go to school?

Looking at this summary, you may be wondering if you need to think about what to do after you enter school. Unfortunately, however, children who are admitted and enrolled in school often face difficulties. Moreover, most of the problems have not yet been addressed. From here, we would like to take a look at the problems faced by children with foreign roots in school life one by one.
