2. The right to education of the vulnerable groups of children 1) Current situation Student athletes 79. "The 2008 Study on Human Rights of Athletes" conducted by NHRCK shows that the average number of regular class hours of an student athlete in secondary school (junior or senior high schools) was 2 hours when he/she was in a competition, and 4.4 hours when he/she was not, which was by far shorter than that of ordinary students. Furthermore, 82.1% of the respondents said that they didn't have supplementary lessons for what they had missed. In general, student athletes spend much more time on physical training than on regular lessons while at school and, as a result, thy show a poor educational performance. Child entertainers 80. According to the interview-based survey of 103 child entertainers conducted by the Youth Policy Analysis & Evaluation Center in 2010, 47.6% of them had ever missed more than half of the daily school lessons every week; 34.1% couldn't find enough time for their homework; and 40% didn't have their right to education fully guaranteed. Child single mothers 81. A 2008 publication by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology reports that 43% of the single mothers were in school and 23% got a request from the school to leave the school temporarily or permanently. According to the 2007 survey by NHRCK, 81% of the responding single mothers wanted to continue their schooling. NHRCK issued a recommendation that the Ministry of Education and other relevant government bodies undertake a measure to secure the rights to education of child single mothers in 2010. Displaced North Korean children 82. A publication by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology reveals that 1,143 displaced North Korean children attend to an elementary or secondary school. They often have difficulty in adapting themselves to the school life, largely because of the disruption of learning in the course of defection from the North and the language and cultural barriers in the South. The school dropout rate of displaced North Korean children is 6.1%, which is more than six times - 21 -
