WHY EDUCATION AND SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS (SEN) ARE CONCERNS FOR EUFASA
Ministry for Foreign Affairs (MFA) Transferable Officer’s children’s education is linked to the MFA Officer’s obligation of mobility. Access to good quality schooling is a crucial issue facing globally mobile families and this applies to schooling on postings and in the home country. Quality education is usually provided by the French lycées, international schools and American and British schools. Living abroad, with frequent changes of cultural environment, often causes problems for MFA Officers’ children in their school careers. These problems are even greater for children with disabilities or SEN.
