"The European Schools resulted from the intention of developing a network of schools at the service of the children of officials of the European institutions, who may be forced to move or to return to their country of origin, and providing them with an education in their mother tongue. The report includes positive aspects, which we value. Examples include the defence of the schools’ fundamental principles, such as teaching in the mother tongue; the guarantee of equivalent teaching conditions for children from all language communities; and the clear and unequivocal statement that ‘the proposed cuts in the budgets of the European Schools constitute a serious threat to the quality of education and the proper functioning of the European Schools’, coupled with opposition to ‘any budgetary cuts’.
This position is all the more important since, under the pretext of budgetary restrictions, measures are being prepared that jeopardise the quality of teaching, which is unacceptable. However, the report also includes a number of contradictions, such as advocating the use of so-called ‘working’ languages, and unsubstantiated positions that we do not support, like the statement that ‘the current intergovernmental legal status of the European Schools has reached its limits’."@en1
