Most of Syria’s schools have been destroyed or put out of operation in the raging warfare, imperiling the education of the Syrians and Palestinians alike.
The Syrian warfare has contributed to a sharp nosepe in the rates of access to education, estimated at 75% in 2015, down from 95% prior to the conflict.
Violence has left only 42 out of 118 schools operational. Other students are being educated at 43 government schools, UNRWA added.
Concerns over abrupt abduction sweeps, torture, and enforced military conscription have led to a dramatic increase in school dropouts and children’s access to education.
According to UNRWA, several Palestinian students dropped out of school as they sought livelihoods to help feeding and sheltering their impoverished families.
