Education overhaul

Governments are failing to prepare Europeans for the world ahead.

We want to overhaul European education systems, building digital skills and code literacy from primary school and extending opportunities for lifelong learning to the population at large. 

Under the Volta Programme, we will increase funding for teachers at all school levels and introduce new methods to the classroom, bolstering the dignity of the teaching profession and making it more attractive to the brightest.

Europe needs engaged and responsible citizens, and schools will be a pillar of the healthy public sphere we must build.

Another major goal is to expand Erasmus+, encompassing ever more universities as well as high school and vocational students.
