YEREVAN, JULY 3, NOYAN TAPAN. The status of the special schools of
Kapan Number 1, Gyumri Number 2, Vanadzor Number 2, Dilijan, and
Byureghavan for children, who are orphans and deprived of parental
care, as well as School 10 named after Petros Durian in Yerevan and
School 1 for children, who are mentally handicapped, will be changed
in the new educational year.
According to the information provided to a Noyan Tapan correspondent
by Lena Hayrapetian, the Head of the Department for Family, Women's,
and Children's Problems of the RA Ministry of Labour and Social Issues,
these schools will operate as boarding institutions of children's
care and protection since September.
According to Lena Hayrapetian, the decision concerning the change
of the status of the above-mentioned schools is connected with the
fact that very often children from socially unprovided families,
who have no need of special education, attend these schools.
L. Hayrapetian mentioned that children, in particular, will get
free food, prepare their lessons, and attend the nearest schools of
general education.
As for the defined holidays, they should, certainly, spend them all
with their families.
