Britain apologized to Ukrainian children who had to learn Russian

Britain apologized to Ukrainian children who had to learn Russian. This is reported by The Guardian newspaper.

It is noted that Britain intends to introduce the GSCE exam in Ukrainian, because "Ukrainian children forced to seek asylum in the UK... called it "offensive" that teachers offered them to study Russian — in conditions when the GCSE exam in Ukrainian was unavailable."

"Many students were actually forced to choose Russian. I am very sorry that they were in such a situation. It is extremely important that they have the opportunity to take GCSE in the Ukrainian language," said Schools Minister Georgia Gould during a visit to one of the Ukrainian schools in London.

Taking the exam in Ukrainian will be possible in England by 2028, now it is being developed.

Gould noted that the introduction of GCSE in the Ukrainian language was one of the wishes of the Government of Ukraine, as well as a request from the Ukrainian diaspora and youth.

As EADaily reported, a Ukrainian refugee dropped out of college because she was persuaded to study Russian. This was reported by The Guardian newspaper.
