Revision as of 13:00, 2 July 2004
The European Schools project began in October 1953 in Luxembourg, on the initiative of officials of the European Coal and Steel Community, with the support of the Community's institutions and the Luxembourg Government. It is an experiment to standardize teaching standards amongst countries. Different governments and Ministries of Education co-operated in matters of curricula, appointment of teachers, inspection and recognition of levels attained.
In April 1957, the signing of Protocol made the Luxembourg School the first official European School. The first European Baccalaureate was held there in July 1959 and the qualification was recognised as fulfilling basic entrance requirements by all universities of the member states.
The success of this educational experiment encouraged the European Economic Community and Euratom to press for the establishment of other European Schools at their various centres. In succession, the following schools were established:
- Luxembourg Luxembourg 1953
- Brussels I Belgium 1958
- Mol/Geel Belgium 1960
- Varese Italy 1960
- Karlsruhe Germany 1962
- Bergen Netherlands 1963
- Brussels II Belgium 1974
- Munich Germany 1977
- Culham United Kingdom 1978
- Brussels III Belgium 1999
In October 2000, the Board of Governors decided to create schools in Alicante and Frankfurt, where the first students started in September 2002.
