In the recent wave of immigration among Chinese families, a phenomenon has quietly emerged: immigrating to provide children with a better education has become one of the top priorities for immigrant families. Malta, a rising star in European immigration, has gradually become a popular destination for Chinese families seeking investment immigration. This is not only due to its education system, which follows the authentic British model, but also because of the free public education provided by the Maltese government.

Overview of Malta's School Management
Although the legal age for compulsory education in Malta is from 5 to 16, early childhood education and childcare services are also effectively free.
The full name of the Maltese Ministry of Education is the Ministry for Education and Employment. The department responsible for immigrant education is a subordinate unit called the "Migrant Learners' Unit" (MLU).
All non-EU students must register with the MLU upon enrollment, and the MLU arranges schools for students based on their residential address in Malta.

Application Requirements
Malta's public education is free for Maltese citizens and residents of the EU and EEA (European Economic Area). Non-EU citizens who work in Malta and pay social security can also enjoy free education. For non-citizens working in Malta with a work permit, if both parents have an annual income of over 20,000 Euros, they can enjoy free public education for children aged 0-16.
Tip: MRVP status holders who do not meet these two conditions can still attend Maltese public schools by paying a certain tuition fee (approximately 4,000+ RMB).

Enrollment Process
Currently, the Maltese Ministry of Education has established 11 school districts nationwide, with a director for each district to coordinate the arrangement of student enrollment and registration. MRVP status holders can apply for school enrollment based on the area where they reside.
Specific steps are as follows:
Step 1: Fill out the pre-registration application form;
Step 2: Prepare the application documents;
Step 3: Make an appointment with the school district office to submit the application form and documents. The district director will arrange the school based on the administrative area of the applicant's residence.
Step 4: Once the school is confirmed, arrange a visit and interview to complete the enrollment. Depending on the child's language proficiency, it will be determined whether they need to enter a preparatory class for a period of adaptation. This preparatory class is free of charge.
