Ethnic divisions still hold sway in Balkan schools In the former Yugoslavia, especially Bosnia, Kosovo and Muslim-dominated areas of Serbia, schooling is often determined by ethnic affiliation. In Palaj, on the outskirts of Kosovo's capital Pristina, a slim majority of its 400 inhabitants are ethnic Serbs who call the village Crkvena Vodica ("Holy Water"). They share a school with the local Albanian community, but the name of the establishment changes according to class ethnicity. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
