Government to ensure that girls from marginalized groups can enjoy their right to quality education. Across Central and Eastern Europe, discrimination and noninclusive education systems systematically deprive children from Roma communities of their right to education. In some countries, only about 20 percent of Roma children ever enroll in primary school, compared with more than 90 percent of their non-Roma peers. Those that do enroll are likely to drop out before the end of basic schooling due to racism, in schools and the lack of capacity of the education system to respond to their special needs. In South-Eastern Europe, for example, only 18 per cent of Roma attend secondary school, compared with 75 per cent of the majority community, and less than 1 per cent of Roma attend university. Many Roma children are found in 'special' schools and classrooms for children with disabilities simply because of their language differences. This leads to large gaps in the quality of education received by Roma children and their non-Roma peers. Pre-school coverage for Roma children in South-Eastern Europe is low, ranging from 0.2 per cent in Kosovo to 13 to 17 per cent in Romania. This lack of access has been identified by Roma NGOs as a major contributing factor in the educational failure of Roma across the region. The World Bank (2010) notes that educational enrolment in Central and Eastern Europe among primary-school age Roma children is on average a quarter of the corresponding rate for non-Roma children. Even when Roma children gain access to primary school, dropout rates are high. In Slovakia, Roma children are 30 times more likely to abandon school than the rest of the population. In Serbia, only 13 per cent of Roma complete primary school. As a result of the high drop-out rate among Roma children, their participation beyond primary school is dramatically lower than that of the majority population. Educational achievement among Roma is low. A Hungarian survey found for example, that the grade average of Roma pupils was lower
