Since the re-independence in 1990ies, the number of schools with Russian as the main language of instruction, has steadily decreased. However,\u00a0 in areas with a considerable\u00a0 Russian-speaking population (for example, Ida-Virumaa in the North-East of Estonia and the larger cities) there are still public schools that have Russian as main language of instruction. In these schools, Russian is taught as the mother tongue and Estonian as the second language. Sometimes, migrant parents might feel that schools with Russian as main language of instruction can better suit their children (maybe children already speak Russian or because Russian is a language spoken by more people, thus more useful).\u00a0 However, when choosing a school with Russian as the main language of instruction, it is useful to be aware that while the amount of Estonian language in Russian-language schools has been increasing throughout the years, the level of Estonian in some of the Russian-language schools might be somewhat low, and not sufficient for further education in Estonia.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-2314\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tab\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2314\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon elementor-accordion-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-plus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-minus\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" href=\"\">Private schools<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2314\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2314\"><p>There are more than 50 private schools in Estonia (57 schools as of 2020), approximately half of them are in the capital \u2013 Tallinn.
