Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the way how foreign elementary and high school students are registered and defined in census data, and in official Hungarian educational statistics. Based on these operationalisations the author tries to describe the current situation and the size of foreign student population in Hungary. In order to have an insight of the relationship between the school success and the rate of foreign students of the school, in the final part of the study the author uses the database of National Assessment of Basic Competencies. The author also uses some results of the first and second generation migrant students of the PISA 2015.
