01/2020  The Administration Board meeting was held on 22.1.2020. The Secretary General (SG) explained at the meeting that he has received the mandate of the Board of Governors (BoG) to ensure that all the European Schools follow the same rules.

He suggested a round table including the German Kultusministerkonferenz (KMK, responsible for the conversion to the German system), the General Secretariat and parents’ representatives. We were happy to agree to this suggestion and will send two representatives. The Joint Teaching Committee (JTC), a body at European level, had its meeting a bit earlier. The memo of their October meeting (annex 3) reports on the...
