Public consultation | Review of Essential Learnings

The proposed revision of the Essential Learning Outcomes for basic and upper-secondary education is currently open for public consultation.

The revision aims to reinforce the clarity, coherence, and guiding nature of the Essential Learnings, integrating the experience of implementation in schools.

Among the main changes, the following stand out: the harmonisation of documents, the clarification of the assessment process with the introduction of performance descriptors, and the link with Citizenship and Development.
