Perspective of the Romanian remigrant students on the process of adapting to the Romanian school

Work abroad appears as a saving version among the uncertainties which many of us encounter. The phenomenon is relatively recent and “information is not sufficient for a complete doctrine.” [1]. According to a study of the Romanian Academy since 2007, migration is selective, because especially young people and a segment of valuable, competitive and well trained labour are migrating, thus reducing the number of active people remaining to work in Romania [2]. Migration occurred especially in monoindustrial areas, where a lot of layoffs have been performed and, once arrived abroad, many started doing works beneath their skill level, as it also mentioned in the study. However, amid the economic crisis, many immigrants were forced to return to their countries of origin. “Tens of thousands of Romanians have already lost their jobs in Spain and Italy and concerns regarding problems related to massive returns are becoming increasingly critical.” [3]. Integration of remigrant students is influenced by school, family, community, environment, but, time factor is crucial. Age and time spent abroad by the student are of a particular importance in the students' ability to adapt/readapt to a new education system. This study highlights the situation of the remigrant pupils in terms of their adapting to the Romanian education system.
