UNRWA announced its decision to extend deadlines for registration of Palestine refugee students at its schools until the end of August.
UNRWA operates 711 elementary and preparatory schools in its five fields of operation, including eight secondary schools in Lebanon, providing free basic education for some 526,000 Palestine refugee children. In addition, technical vocational training and higher education is provided at eight Vocational Training Centres for approximately 7,700 Palestine refugees in all fields of operations and for about 1,600 students in 2 educational science faculties (teacher training institutes, one in the West Bank and one in Jordan).
Schoolchildren in UNRWA schools follow the host authorities’ curricula and textbooks. UNRWA supplements these with its own materials on human rights.
