Arrangements for the admission of children from Ukraine to public schools
The Republic of Cyprus, like other EU Member States, provides protection to Ukrainian citizens arriving on its territory for a period of one year.
In the framework of this policy and following previous actions for the education of Ukrainian nationals, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports and Youth (MESY) is making the necessary arrangements for the education of students from Ukraine at all levels for the new school year 2022-2023.
In particular, the Ministry of Education and Science:
- Calls on all children to register, as soon as possible, at the District Education Offices. It is recalled that the attendance of pupils in schools is compulsory by law from the age of 4 years and 8 months (to have reached this age before 1 September of the year in which attendance begins) until the pupil completes the secondary school cycle or his/her 15th year of age, whichever comes first. The contact details of the District Offices are attached in Appendix I. Please note that it is important to register early so that proper planning can be made.
- Notify that all children who were enrolled and attended public schools during the school year 2021-2022, regardless of their level of language proficiency in the Greek language, will continue their education in the schools where they are enrolled.
- He also informs that intensive Greek lessons and facilities for distance learning of the Ukrainian educational programme will be offered in certain schools per province in the evening.
