Written question No. 599 to the Committee of Ministers | Doc. 12668 | 23 June 2011

presented by Lord Boswell

The European school in Strasbourg has reached capacity within its first two years and its plans for 1.000 pupils are most unlikely to satisfy the demand.

Mr Boswell,

To ask the Committee of Ministers,

Is this acceptable, and in particular is it acceptable that its admissions policy, contrary to earlier undertakings, is currently restricted to nationals from European Union member states, and thereby excludes nationals from other Council of Europe members whose parents are working in this city?
