Sinti and Roma continue to face inequality in the German education system, a new study shows. Politicians and associations are now calling for support measures to be scrutinised more closely. EURACTIV Germany reports.
A decade after the first survey into the education experience of Germany’s Sinti and Roma populations, the association RomnoKher released new data in a report presented on Wednesday (24 February).
Based on 614 interviews with Sinti and Roma people across Germany, it shows that these groups are still at a disadvantage in the country’s education system, although some progress was made compared to the 2011 study.
The main area of progress relates to primary school attendance: school was universally attended among the younger respondents to the 2021 survey, compared with 13% who did not attend school in 2011.
