(CS) Education minister Mady Delvaux-Stehres has decided to prolong the negotiation phase of the school reform until 2013 to allow for further talks with teachers' associations and students.
The move comes after months of protests following the first detailed plans of the school reform, which saw several changes to the current system, including combining the first two years of “postprimaire” education into one block with no option of failing, as well as an extended written paper.
The seven traditional sections of secondary education are also meant to be reduced to two “dominantes.”
