95% of Palestinian children from Syria have been prevented from accessing education facilities in Egypt, where they have been treated as foreigners rather than legitimate asylum seekers.
Speaking with AGPS, a Palestinian refugee from Syria said he has failed to enroll his 10-year-old daughter at a government-run school. The only option left is to have her join a private school, an alternative which he said far outlives his budget.
According to the refugee, hundreds of Palestinian children from Syria have been enduring a similar fate as his daughter’s as their parents have failed to shell out education fees at private institutions.
The fact that UNRWA has not opened up schools for Palestinian refugees in Egypt has added bad to worse.
