I am sure that Commissioner Wallstrom will be monitoring this as well...
Some would call it propaganda and indoctrination...how about it Margot? Come and justify this one.
Lessons on Europe proposed by French
By David Rennie in Paris
(Filed: 27/02/2006)
Lessons on the European Union to give secondary school pupils in all 25 member states an "apprenticeship" as Europeans, are being proposed by France.
The lessons would be based on a standardised "teaching module" covering EU values and history, a senior French official said.
Many European children already study the EU's history, learn to draw its flag, celebrate "Europe Day" on May 9 or sing its official hymn, the Ode to Joy.
The proposal is one of more than a dozen drawn up by President Jacques Chirac's government to create new "momentum" with a "Europe of projects".
French officials hope that some could be brought to fruition in the coming months using existing EU treaties.
They believe that they would restore public confidence in Europe after the draft EU constitution was derailed by No votes in Holland and France last summer. Several of the French ideas are recycled from the constitution's ruins.
British officials stressed last night that moves to impose harmonised EU lessons
