Sažetak
In Slovenia, three national minorities are recognized (Italian, Hungarian and Roma), who enjoy different collective rights. However, there are also immigrants or "new" minorities present in Slovenia. The members of this group mainly consist of immigrants from the countries of the former Yugoslavia. They are mostly economic migrants and refugees who came to Slovenia during the war in the Balkans and remained (Ribičič, 2004). In recent years, however, the number of migrants who came to Slovenia from the Middle East has also been increasing (EMN, 2017). Many surveys show that there usually exist differences in school achievements between various ethnic groups or minorities in a country and students belonging to the majority population (Luciak, 2006), therefore countries need to ensure an inclusive and equal educational experience for all students. In the light of these changes, the objective of the article is to analyse and compare the policies in the field of established national minority education and immigrant or “new” minority education and to determine elements of specific policy models used in Slovenia in the field of education for each of the Slovenian minorities.
