Judgment of the Regional Court in Prešov on the segregation of Roma children from Malý Slivník at the primary school in a village Terňa
The Regional Court in Prešov, in its judgment of 22 April 2024, confirmed that the defendant state institutions had committed discrimination – both by adopting decisions on the designation of the school district, which maintained the existing segregation of Roma children at the school in Terni, and by failing to take effective measures to prevent and eliminate their segregation. The Regional Court upheld the defendants’ obligation to develop within six months of the judgment, a plan of measures leading to the effective elimination and prevention of segregation and their obligation to implement that plan within two years. The decision is final and the defendants cannot appeal against it.
