Hamburg: „In Hamburg, the city education authority runs welcome classes in each reception centre for asylum seekers and refugees. These classes focus on the quick acquisition of language skills as well as on a general orientation regarding German culture and values. This ‘education from day one’ approach avoids any loss of time and prevents children from being kept in limbo for undefined periods.“
