The article analyzes the spectrum of informational challenges arising in the integration process of Ukrainian refugee schoolchildren into the German educational system. Particular attention is given to acquiring comprehensive information on the adaptation process of these schoolchildren to new educational conditions, with a specific focus on the influence of linguistic, cultural, and various socio-economic factors. A detailed analysis is provided regarding the dynamics of the growth in the number of Ukrainian refugee schoolchildren in German schools between 2022 and 2024, along with conclusions concerning the main regions of residence for these
schoolchildren as of July 2024. A research framework is developed, allowing for the identification of the impact of socio-economic factors on the educational integration of Ukrainian refugee schoolchildren in Germany. Furthermore, the article discusses the structure of a questionnaire that is designed to include a comprehensive set of questions aimed at a thorough analysis of the challenges associated with this educational integration, including the specific needs of refugee children with special educational requirements and the possibility of maintaining ties with the Ukrainian educational environment.
