EU ambassador: Opening Moroccan education system to migrants’ kids, huge stride

EU Ambassador in Rabat Rupert Joy lauded the new immigration policy set up recently by Morocco, describing the opening of the Moroccan education system to migrants’ kids as a huge stride to implement the principle of education for all. Opening the Moroccan education system to migrants’ kids is a huge stride to implement the principle of education for all, given that education is a basic right of children, including children in immigration situation, regardless of their administrative situation, he said at a press conference on the presentation of the report: “Migrants kids and the Moroccan school.” He also emphasized that this report is a useful tool to implement the principle of “education for all,” as promoted by the new immigration policy in Morocco, and contains 31 specific recommendations to the Ministry of national Education and vocational Training, civil society and the international community. Joy congratulated, at the same time, the Moroccan authorities in the field of education and non-formal education, who have actively contributed to the development of this report.
