Many of the 3,621 learners have arrived through resettlement schemes or as unaccompanied asylum-seeking children.
Kathleen Leslie, education scrutiny committee convener, said: “Fife is proud to be a welcoming place for children and young people seeking safety.
“Our schools do exceptional work to help them settle, feel included, and build a future here.
“Their resilience, combined with the dedication of our staff, demonstrates the power of inclusive education.”
The council’s English as an Additional Language Support Service is expanding to meet rising demand, with schools across the Kingdom adopting compassionate and practical approaches to ensure every child feels safe and supported.
Technology also plays a key role in supporting learning.
Fife Council’s Transforming Learning programme equips students with iPads and translation tools, enabling them to build confidence in English and learn more independently.
Teachers can tailor assignments to individual needs, helping learners make rapid progress.
The council continues to work with partners to support wellbeing, reduce isolation, and prepare young people for further education.
Many former pupils have already progressed to ESOL college courses, with some moving on to university.
Going forward, the service will focus on strengthening targeted interventions, developing staff training and continuing partnership work to ensure every young person, regardless of background, can thrive in Fife’s schools.
