The least of the students in 30 years: children leave Ukraine massively

Ukraine is rapidly losing students. According to the official data of the State Statistics Service, as of the 2024-2025 academic year, the country has 3.74 million school -age children - this is the lowest in the last 30 years.

Even more anxious is the statistics on children studying in the Ukrainian education system but are outside the country. Every tenth child from the Ukrainian school system is now abroad.

According to UN estimates, there are about 1.4 million children between the ages of 3 and 17 of Ukrainian refugees, and of them up to 720 thousand - school age. This is an indicative figure, because there are no accurate official data. At the same time, UNESCO's research shows that nearly 665,000 Ukrainian students studied in the EU countries alone.

Both girls and boys go. Some run away from shelling, others - even because of the fear of mobilization. Parents do not want to risk their children's health and future, and are increasingly choosing their studies abroad.

Although the Ministry of Education recognizes the fact of emigration of young people after school, they insist there: it has no signs of mass. However, polls and sociology testify to another - the tendency to leave is only increasing.

While the education system is reformed and prepared for new challenges, the country may remain with a dramatic personnel deficit in the future. Because today's students are tomorrows, teachers, engineers. But many of them will study and then work in other countries.
