New Searchable Database
As part of the ongoing development of Education in the News, we now have a searchable database of articles. It will be available externally but, in the meantime, if you are a UK education policy maker, please contact us with your query and we would be happy to search the database for you.
These bulletins contain a collection of recent education news items, presented in alphabetical order by country. They have been collected from international education websites, ministry websites, and other publications.
The international supplement is is based on information collected in the process of the Eurydice Unit's work in maintaining and developing the Qualifications and Curriculum Development Agency-sponsored International Review of Curriculum and Assessment Frameworks (INCA) Internet Archive.
Direct links, correct at the time of going to press, have been given where possible; otherwise the nearest point of entry to the source website is given.
