Crèche: Approval for plurilingual education and 20 hours free crèche | #Luxembourg #Europe #KITA

Crèche: Approval for plurilingual education and 20 hours free crèche | #Luxembourg #Europe #KITA | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
Luxembourg's parliament has voted to introduce plurilingual education as well as 20 hours a week free-of-charge in crèches.

The main focus of the reform is the introduction of Luxembourgish and French within crèches for all children aged between one and four.

Parents of children within the same age bracket will also be able to benefit from free childcare for 20 hours per week for 46 weeks a year. Low-income families or large families will also be entitled to tariff reductions for children up to 12 years old.

The changes come into force in October.

Luxembourg Looks to Implement Free Multilingual Education Programme for 1-4 years old

Luxembourg Looks to Implement Free Multilingual Education Programme for 1-4 years old | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

Following the announcement of a €315 billion education investment plan for Europe on Monday, Luxembourg Minister of National Education, Children and Youth, Claude Meisch, met the following day with a delegation from the LCGB trade union to discuss the potential for a national multilingual education programme which would be offered for 1-4 year olds for free.

Minister Meisch presented the three pillars of the optional educational programme, which would comprise the development of language skills, the establishment of a strong collaboration with families as well as networking with schools, reception facilities and social services. The initiative would see various pilot projects launched for the beginning of the 2016 school year, with a view to developing practive models and empirical evidence ahead of the 2017 introduction of the new programme.
