| Abstract | "This book analyses the schooling of Syrian refugee children living in Australia and Sweden. It explores the similarities and differences between the educational systems and provisions for education of the two case countries, and examines the refugee children's schooling and trajectories for transition to life and work. The voices of Syrian refugee children are central to the analysis and the work draws on these perspectives as well as those of other stakeholders, such as parents or caregivers, teachers and school and state officials. The work will develop recommendations for the education of children in situations of crisis and displacement"-- Provided by publisher. |
