FAQ

This year, we are finishing the school year with 1550 students in our three schools, which we opened in Warsaw, Krakow and Wroclaw thanks to funding from UNICEF and Save the Children International.

What will happen in the new school year?

We continue to work and seek funding to maintain the level of support for our schools and expand the network. But let’s be honest: there are no definitive answers yet.

In the two months since the registration for 23/24 has been launched, we have already received more than 800 new unique applications for study in Warsaw, Krakow, and Wroclaw. We are also (not surprised) to receive applications for training in other cities. We are assessing the demand and considering opportunities to reach as many Ukrainian children as possible who do not have enough places in Polish schools or find it difficult to study there.

The information will appear no earlier than June-July.

Before submitting your documents, be sure to read the rules of admission on the website https://nezlamna.org/uk/informacziya-pro-navchannya-u-shkoli/ and read the pinned posts on social media. We remind you of our social networks:

To apply for the academic year 23/24, you just need to fill out application form. You will be added to the waiting list, and we will send you information about available places and the admission procedure during the summer admission campaign. That is, the questionnaire will be answered in June-July.

Students from grades 1 to 11 who are already studying with us will be automatically transferred to the next year.

We would like to remind you that the First Ukrainian School from the Unbreakable Ukraine Foundation responds to letters and writes letters, not calls.

We signed an agreement on cooperation with the United Nations Children’s Fund – UNICEF. It is thanks to their financial support that we are able to provide children with everything they need and pay teachers’ salaries. We are also helped by various private donors.

Ukrainian children were deprived of homes, friends, relatives, and toys, so we tried to create a comfortable environment for them “from scratch”. Studying according to the usual program, with familiar subjects, is what connects them with home. The subjects are taught by Ukrainian teachers in a language they understand — this creates an atmosphere of stability, which is urgently needed now. The Ukrainian program ensures the continuity of the educational process — there is no need to adapt to a foreign language and a new program.

According to UNICEF, more than 500,000 children came to Poland, and only 190,000 of them study in Polish schools. The rest study at home in their online Ukrainian schools. We offer everything the same as the Ukrainian school in Ukraine, but offline and in Poland.

So far, children with special needs do not study in our school, because we do not have specialized staff and tutors, and we cannot provide such children with all the conditions they need. But we are working on it and have already taken certain steps to solve the issue, because we are convinced that all children should have equal access to education.

Let’s be honest: this is not prohibited by law, but according to the requirements of our donors, it is impossible. We are committed to donors in compliance with European practices, according to which individual gifts to teachers or any other professionals in their field are prohibited.

Therefore, in all three of our schools, parents and children are not required to bring flowers on September 1 or give money to buy curtains, there are no requirements to give a set of glasses or a vase, and it is not customary to celebrate any calendar holiday just like that.

Instead of a gift for the teacher, it is better to buy a book for the child or spend time with her 💖

The task of teachers is to teach children. And the task of our foundation is to provide conditions for education. This is our mission. Therefore, the best gift for us is a happy child who studies diligently, and whose parents help him in this.

In addition, we believe that targeted aid is the most effective. You could see for yourself if you joined the “People’s Bayraktar” campaign. Individual 20 hryvnias would not be of much importance, but gathered in one place is a great power.
