The UNRWA Education Department announced the launch of registration procedures for 1st year schoolchildren for the academic year 2022/2023 based on guidelines set by the Syrian Education Ministry.
In order to be successfully enrolled at a UNRWA school, the student should be a Palestinian refugee in Syria registered with UNRWA and the General Authority for Palestinian Arab Refugees (GAPAR).
Descendants of registered refugee women known as ”˜married to non-refugee’ (MNR) family members are also eligible to be registered at UNRWA schools after a family file proving the mother’s Palestinian citizenship and family name is presented.Â
Non-registered students will only be admitted after a refugee registration card is presented along with the aforementioned documents. Eligible candidates are born in 2015-2016 or in January 2017.
