Right to quality education

Ensuring the right to quality
education for all
The Council of Europe DGYRFDWHV quality education not WR only SUHSDUH for
employment, but also for life as active citizens in democratic societies, personal
development and the development and maintenance of a broad, advanced
knowledge base. All four purposes are equally important and Fompatible. They reinforce
each other. Many of the competences you need to be an active citizen also help make
you employable and they contribute to your personal development.
Education systems in Europe should make it possible for every student to develop his or her
abilities to the full and help them develop their ambitions. This is particularly important for
students who come from backgrounds where education is considered less as an opportunity
than as a waste of time. Therefore the quality of an education system must include its
ability to provide adequate opportunities for all learners. Moving from the institution to the
system level, it becomes even more evident that inclusion is an important dimension of the
quality debate. Can a system be excellent if it leaves a solid proportion of its learners by
the wayside?
Quality education is ensured differently in compulsory and in non-compulsory education
and it is ensured differently in kindergarten than in higher education. Some groups will
need special attention and special measures to have a quality education offer adapted to
their needs, but quality education must be ensured for all.
Public authorities have an important role in making sure that quality education is available
to all but they do this in different ways in different countries and at different levels. Some
education is privately provided but it operates within a framework established by public
authorities. Public responsibility does not stop where private schooling begins, or when
compulsory education comes to an end.
The Council of Europe’s education programme stems from the European Cultural
&RQYHQWLRQ (76 Qƒ DQG WKH &RQYHQWLRQ RQ WKH 5HFRJQLWLRQ RI 4XDOL¿FDWLRQV
concerning Higher Education in the European Region (ETS n° 165) as well as from
several Recommendations adopted by the Committee of Ministers in relation to the
public responsibility for effective implementation of quality inclusive education as well
as citizenship, human rights and antidiscrimination in education.

education in encouraging respect for cultural diversity while furthering common
fundamental values. The European Cultural Convention is the foundation for

of Education. The ministerial declaration of the 24th session of the Standing
Conference on “Governance and Quality Education”, adopted on 27 April 2013 in
Helsinki is at the origin of several new activities of the education programme,
in particular the platform for Ethics, 7ransparency and ,ntegrity in education as
well as Tuality education. The project on developing and describing
Competences for Democratic Culture initiated in Helsinki is included in the Council
of Europe’s Action Plan against violent extremism and radicalisation leading to
terrorism.
The Education programme is overseen by the Steering Committee for Education
Policy and Practice (CDPPE) and the Lisbon Recognition Convention Committee.
Both committees co-operate closely in ensuring overall implementation of the
programme in accordance with the Council of Europe’s standards and political
priorities. They also co-operate with other pertinent Council of Europe bodies
as well as with other international institutions, public authorities and civil society
organisations.

Directorate of democratic
citizenship and participation
Rooted in the European Cultural Convention, the mission of the Directorate of Democratic
Citizenship and Participation (as part of Directorate General of Democracy DGII of the
Council of Europe) is to develop democracy, human rights and the rule of law through
the Council of Europe’s programmes in education and youth policy and practice. The
programmes focus on the emerging generation, enabling children and young people to
become engaged and responsible European citizens who advocate human rights and
participate fully in democratic life.
The Education Department develops policies and practice to help member states
build a culture of democracy through education. It covers all areas and levels of
education. The Education Department is engaged in both policy development and
capacity building and co-operation. Key instruments include the European Cultural
Convention (art.2), a new Framework of Competences for Democratic Culture, the
Charter on Education for Democratic Citizenship and Human Rights Education,
the Recommendation on ensuring Quality Education, the Lisbon Recognition
Convention and the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
The programme is overseen by the Steering Committee for Educational Policy and

The development of a reference framework for identifying and describing the
competences needed by individuals to participate effectively in democratic society
that may be acquired through formal, informal and non-formal education is the core
element of this project. The Council of Europe will propose a model of competences
for democratic culture and generic descriptors that member states will be able
to adapt and integrate into their respective education policies and practice while
adhering to common Council of Europe values and principles.

in developing the democratic culture
without which democratic institutions

They should also play a key role in

Programme
Programme
The Education Department’s programme is determined by the Council of Europe’s member
states. The objective of the Education programme is to help develop a culture of democracy
through quality education.
The Council of Europe achieves this aim through intergovernmental co-operation
(Committees and Working Groups) and by favouring exchanges of information and
innovative policies and practices (Networks) at pan-European level, as well as peer-to-peer
learning among member states (seminars, symposiums, conferences).
The main target groups of the programme are policy makers in Ministries of Education in
member states and other public education actors from specialised agencies as well as
higher education institutions and universities and non-governmental organisations.
The programme is supported by the European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML)
in Graz, which implements Council of Europe policy in the Enlarged Partial Agreement’s
member states through the development and dissemination of best practice and innovation
in language education, and the European Wergeland Centre in Oslo, which develops
education for intercultural understanding, human rights, awareness of democratic culture
and the need for intercultural dialogue among professionals in all areas of education.
Capacity building and co-operation activities are carried out several priority geographical
areas that include Eastern Partnership countries and South East Europe. Regional cooperation is fostered through regional summer academies for democracy and human rights
in central Europe, South East Europe and the Baltic States.
