Lubinec stated that it is becoming increasingly difficult for Ukrainian children abroad to attend Ukrainian schools online
It is becoming increasingly difficult for Ukrainian children living abroad to balance their studies at local schools with distance learning at Ukrainian educational institutions. This was reported by Dmytro Lubinets, the Verkhovna Rada’s Human Rights Commissioner.
According to him, EU countries are increasingly refusing to allow Ukrainian schoolchildren to participate in online classes during school hours. Instead, children are offered the opportunity to study the Ukrainian language at Sunday schools, which are mostly organized by the Ukrainian diaspora.
Lubinec also noted an increase in cases of bullying targeting Ukrainian children abroad. He said that while some of these cases become public, many incidents are handled discreetly.

Earlier, the Ukrainian Center for Educational Quality Assessment commented on the situation in the Odesa region, where participants in the National Multidisciplinary Test spent nearly 13 hours at the testing center due to prolonged air raid alerts. According to the agency, graduates were offered the option to reschedule the exam for an additional session, but they refused and decided to wait until the testing was over and take the NMT that same day.
An alternative bill to change the format of the National Multisubject Test (NMT) has been registered in the Verkhovna Rada. The bill proposes reducing the number of subjects to be tested from four to three. In this case, mathematics would be an elective subject.
