Résumé

Schools for the Future Europe brings together a team of leading academics, policy makers and education professionals to explore the emergence, development and application of European education policy up to the 2009 Lisbon Treaty and beyond. The book charts the historical development of a Europe-wide education policy, and examines how that policy has sought to address such issues as European citizenship, human rights and bilingual schooling. Taking as examples the intended future extension of the European Schools and the European Baccalaureate, and a case study of work towards the first British European Academy or Free School at Culham, UK, the book critically explores the interplay of EU action programmes, policy and rhetoric on secondary education. In the final section, the editors draw on the insights of the previous chapters to outline an achievable programme for the future development of education policy structures and practice in schools for Europe.

Reviews:

"A thorough and detailed review of European educational initiatives together with interesting insights from a variety of contributors about how such initiatives could be developed and given new directions for the future. The emphasis on the economic and cultural benefits - both for individuals and for countries - of learning foreign languages is particularly welcome." Rt. Hon. Baroness Joyce Quin, former Minister for Europe
