The ministry’s official spokesman, Walid Al-Jallad, told the Anadolu Agency that two million Jordanian students attend various schools and educational institutes in the country.
“The number of Syrian students in the kingdom is more than 130,000 students. Many of them study alongside their Jordanian peers in public schools while others study in double shift schools in addition to refugee camp schools,” he added.
Al-Jallad pointed out that his country “provides a great humanitarian service to these students, out of its national and humanitarian duty.”
“We have other programmes for Syrian students who drop out of schools, called remedial education programmes in coordination with UNICEF to enrol them in state-run schools.”
More than 1.3 million Syrians have taken refuge in Jordan, half of them are registered as refugees.
