A Critical Evaluation of the Education Policies on Syrian Refugees in Turkey and Jordan
Unlu, Nihan Aylin; Ergul, Hatice
International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, v13 n2 p1694-1708 2021
As of the beginning of the Syrian war, many Syrian citizens had to relocate and migrate to other countries, which have borders with Syria. Turkey and Jordan are countries, which hosted very high numbers of Syrian refugees. The majority of Syrian refugees are children and they have not been able to integrate into the education system properly in the countries they sought refugee. This study aims to examine education policies of Turkey and Jordan to identify the problems associated with the existing systems and to provide an appropriate framework for the governments about the necessary educational measures to be taken for the refugees. In the scope of this study, it can be observed that refugees in both Jordan and Turkey have had difficulty in accessing basic education and therefore, the governments had to reconsider and make some changes in their refugee education policies to solve the problems encountered. The data of this research were collected through document analysis.
