cases where this segregation of Roma students has been found to be in violation of their right to education without discrimination. In the 2008 case of Sampanis v Greece which was heard in the European Court of Human Rights. It was found that the failure to allow Roma children to enroll in school, plus the subsequent separation of the children into a separate Roma-only class in an annex of the school, was a violation of article 14 of the EU convention on human rights. Despite the court ruling on this case, systematic segregation of Roma children continued. Following the 2008 judgment a 12th primary school was opened to replace the annex and required that all students from a particular area move to that school (this included the students from the original Sampanis and other schools). This effectively established a ghetto school of Roma-only students where the education provided was lower than that of the Greek majority 10th school within the same area. In 2012 a second case was bought the court and in Sampani and others v Greece the court again found that Greece had failed to prevent discrimination in access to education for Roma children. The court ordered that the children who were still of school age be transferred to another integrated state school. There are a number of cases such as Orsus and Others v Croatia where courts have found that the segregation of Roma students into special classes or into Roma only schools was discrimination, and violated the fundamental right of education without discrimination. Segregation of Roma into special schools A serious violation of the Roma right to education arises in the unlawful segregation of Roma students into "special schools". In many countries in eastern Europe, there is a significantly disproportionate number of Roma children who are classified "special needs" and put into special education schools. Language barriers, lack of Roma attendance at preschool or kindergarten, and an often delayed start to school lead to Roma lagging behind their non-Roma counterparts. They are often subject to unfair testing which results in being put in either remedial classes within a normal school, or more often put into special education schools. Students in special schools do not receive equal education and no longer have the ability to graduate and gain higher education. A Czech case was bought before the Human rights court in 2007 which addressed the disproportionate number
