Title | Strategies of Roma Families on the Margins of Hungarian Education |
Summary | Although the legal regulations in Hungary highlight that ethnic separation is illegal, the town of Nyíregyháza sustains an educational institution which applies this in an educational environment. The school was taken to court in 2012 and the decision found the school to be legal, due to the religious principles used during education. Therefore, a de facto segregation was de jure approved. However, conditions of segregation and their harmful effect on children remain. The case raises the question why do the educational system of that town maintains a segregated school for Roma children instead of supporting their integration into local schools. How do local Roma families cope with this system of education in the town? |
