"Every juvenile of compulsory school age has the right to education suited to his or her needs and abilities and designed to prepare him or her for return to society. Such education should be provided outside the detention facility in community schools wherever possible and, in any case, by qualified teachers through programmes integrated with the education system of the country so that, after release, juveniles may continue their education without difficulty " (Rule 38, Rules for the Protection of Juveniles Deprived of their Liberty)
Article 77 (2), Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners; Rule 38, Rules for the Protection of Juveniles Deprived of their Liberty; Article 10 (3), International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
Without such arrangements, this group of children would be denied access to education and the opportunity to integrate back into society after release
