Ministry of Education Reports on Education in Occupied Schools
November 17, 2025
Since May 2023, no inspectors or educators from the Ministry of Education of Cyprus have visited schools in the occupied territories due to a requirement for written requests from the pseudo-state. Despite this ban, education in the occupied schools is deemed satisfactory. In the 2023-2024 school year, a total of 32 children are attending three schools. Known issues such as censorship and attempts to limit educational activities persist. The Rizokarpaso Primary School is the only Greek primary school that has remained operational throughout the Turkish occupation.
