The European Commission’s New Strategy: Rethinking Education

The European Commission is launching a new strategy paper called Rethinking Education to persuade Member States to boost the performance and efficiency of their education systems. The paper focuses on the contribution of education to sustainable growth and to better socio-economic outcomes. It aims to help European Union countries deliver informed and evidence-based policies and, to this end, it sets out a number of policy priorities for education and training systems, as a contribution to the European Commission's Annual Growth Survey.
