Investment immigration to Greece is currently an excellent and efficient immigration method. Aiming to enjoy European-style education and obtaining immigration status to accompany children for their studies has become the most popular way to go abroad today. Greece is one of the countries in the world that established an education system early on, possessing a profound historical heritage and making outstanding contributions to educational thought worldwide. Among these, Greek education places particular emphasis on basic education. Unlike the immense academic pressure placed on children in China and the typical exam-oriented education, Greek basic education places more importance on children's independent thinking, leadership, logical reasoning, and especially moral education. The Greek education system is somewhat similar to China's, also following a nine-year compulsory education system. Public primary and secondary schools are funded by the government with free tuition, while private schools charge 3000-10000 Euros in tuition, offering extremely high cost-effectiveness.
Greek academic qualifications are internationally recognized, allowing students to use their Greek transcripts to apply for better, higher-level institutions worldwide for further studies. If choosing to study in other EU countries, children of clients holding a Greek residence permit can also enjoy the treatment of EU students (the tuition for EU students is basically 50-70% of that for overseas students).
At the same time, schools in Greece are mainly divided into two categories: public and private. Comparatively, private schools have richer educational resources, with the vast majority of teachers coming from overseas and all possessing unified EU teaching qualifications. Additionally, since Greek public schools teach in Greek, private schools are more suitable for clients who wish for their children to receive an English-language education. The cost of preschool education in private schools is 2000-3000 Euros per academic year, 4000-6000 Euros per academic year for primary and middle school, and 6000-9000 Euros per academic year for high school.
In comparison, private schools in the UK often charge over 10,000-30,000 pounds per year. For private schools in the United States, not to mention other expenses, the tuition alone is 30,000-40,000 US dollars per year. The high cost of private schools in Beijing is shocking. In contrast, the cost-effectiveness of Greek education is very high.
What is even more attractive is that Greece is both an EU member state and a Schengen country. Due to its important geographical location in Europe, it has attracted many famous foreign institutions to establish branch campuses in Greece. For example, the University of Sheffield in the UK and the State University of New York in the US have branch campuses in Greece. In addition, some Greek schools cooperate with prestigious UK universities, such as the University of Manchester, the University of Kent, City, University of London, etc., to provide higher-level education. With the sharp decline of the Euro, now is an even better time to invest in immigration to Greece for your children.
