Some 5-10% of Bulgarian Children Abroad Go to Bulgarian Schools

There are more than 200 Bulgarian schools abroad and their number, as well as the number of their students is increasing, chair of the Association of Bulgarian Schools Abroad Dr. Boyan Kulov told Darik.

However, according to the experts, only between 5 and 10 percent of school-age Bulgarian children living abroad go to a Bulgarian school.

According to Boyan Kulov this year the Bulgarian school in Vienna will have the highest number of students: "The number of first-graders abroad is constantly growing. In Vienna there is a boom this year - more than 50 first-graders. The number of schools has increased, too. Most of them teach only Bulgarian language and literature, history and geography of Bulgaria."
