Two more Ukrainian schools will be opened in Lithuania: at the request of parents from Ukraine

In the Lithuanian cities of Kaunas and Siauliai, at the request of parents from Ukraine, Ukrainian schools will be opened with a five-day training schedule. The new educational institutions will operate on the basis of the branch of the International Ukrainian School (IUS).

This is reported by the local edition LRT with reference to the director of the International Ukrainian School Elena Vnukovskaya. According to her, in the first three days of registration in two cities, a total of more than 450 Ukrainian children signed up.

“Throughout the year in which our five-day schools in Vilnius and Klaipeda operate, we regularly received requests from Ukrainian parents from all cities of Lithuania with a request to open new branches of the MUSH. Our people are everywhere. And the largest Ukrainian school in Europe, which provides a certificate state standard and teaches according to the programs approved by the Ministry of Education of Ukraine – one. And this is our school, “said Elena Vnukovskaya.

She said that 1,350 Ukrainians study in Ukrainian schools in Vilnius and Klaipeda.

It should be noted that SUSh is a bilingual educational institution, where, in addition to Ukrainian and English, much attention is paid to learning the language of the country in which the school operates – Lithuanian. For this, new special programs were written in the educational institution.

As you know, about 70 thousand refugees from Ukraine moved to Lithuania, among them 25 thousand are minors.

Recall that a Lithuanian court recently sentenced a local resident to two years and three months in prison for spending the money collected to help Ukraine to buy a car.

Also, earlier GLOBAL HAPPENINGS reported that Ukraine and Lithuania have simplified the exchange of driver’s licenses. Now it will be held without additional exams – both theoretical and practical.
