| Summary: | Receiving, accommodation and education of children with immigrant background is one of the
challenging issues in almost all the metropolitan areas in many countries. In our study we are

approaches, research findings and student achievement in the field of education of linguistic

challenges facing the educational policy makers and the linguistic minority students are quite
similar. |
