Along with this, on Thursday, the minister had a meeting with the authorities related to the studies, the unions as well as other school-related actions. They had a discussion over the arrival of the children from the war-torn nation in classes. She mentioned, “We must prepare for a more massive arrival and over time.”
Moreover, the children will also be needed more psychological support because of the difficult situation they are going through. They have left their homes and the current situation from where they have come from.
Furthermore, in Belgium, the school authorities are suffering the lack of teachers as the number of students in the schools are increasing on the per-day basis Desir mentioned that she has thought to hire Ukrainian teachers to help in the education of the refugee children because of which specific working group has been developed.
