ORPHANS AND CHILDREN DEPRIVED OF PARENTAL CARE IN SCHOOLS PROBLEMS IN QUALITY EDUCATION AND UPBRINGING

Abstract

Education recognized in the Convention on the Rights of the Child is a fundamental human right for all children. All children or students, regardless of status, should have quality education, which should enable them to acquire knowledge, skills and competencies to increase their personal income and contribute to economic efficiency. Therefore, in addition to being beneficial to the child, schools also serve as important resource centers for meeting the wider needs of society. In this regard, schools provide children with a safe structured environment, emotional support and control from adults, and the opportunity to learn how to interact with other children and develop social relationships. Investing in health and education is positively associated with improved human capital and rapid economic growth. Education is one of the key factors of economic development. Education reflects professional and social success in people’s lives. Numerous studies have documented that school success depends on socio-economic status, such as family size, economic status, education, living environment, and so on. Achieving optimal quality of education is a major challenge for any environment, as school success depends on many aspects, such as the family’s socioeconomic and school factors, children’s health and nutrition, and developmental status. The whole world is struggling to care for about 143,000,000 orphans and millions of abandoned children. Every child has the right to grow up in a supportive family environment.
