Webinar: Immigrant Students at School: Easing the Journey towards Integration

 

Watch the webinar:

 

 

You are invited to attend a webinar with Andreas Schleicher, Director of the OECD Directorate for Education and Skills to present the findings of this report.

In 2015, Europe recorded an unprecedented number of asylum seekers: as many as one million. An estimated 350,000 to 450,000 people could be granted refugee or similar status, more than in any previous European refugee crisis since World War II. The way in which education systems respond to migration has an enormous impact on whether or not migrants are successfully integrated into their host communities, and on the economic and social well-being of all members of the communities they serve, whether they have an immigrant background or not. This report examines in detail how immigrant students fare in different education systems – and what this means for education policy makers..
