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.
