"Madam President, European schools have an important mission: to provide native-language instruction for pupils whose parents are working outside their country of origin. It is therefore with great concern that we view attempts, on the pretext of cost efficiency, to implement measures that could well put the mission and objective of European schools at risk.We are speaking of measures such as increasing the minimum class size for elective subjects, the vertical merger of two or more different years into a single class, or the reduction of support for pupils with learning difficulties. Some of these measures could well give rise to situations that in the past were considered unfairly discriminatory by the European Ombudsman.We reject any step backward in this area. It is furthermore unacceptable that in European schools the principle of multilingualism is being attacked and that the privileged status enjoyed by some of the languages of the European Union in other domains is being extended in this case to the detriment of the rest."@en1
