Editorial
Liebe Eltern,
Dies ist Ihre Zeitschrift. Die nächste Ausgabe erscheint im
Sommer. Wenn Sie etwas veröffentlichen möchten, bitte schicken
Sie es uns.
Dear members, dear parents,
The APEEE is pleased to bring you this next issue of Ad Parentes
for the school year 2009-2010. Your management committee
members each put in all the effort that they are able – and some
make herculean efforts to balance APEEE role(s) with work, home
and other commitments – but it is a fact that our resources are
extremely limited. This sometimes restricts our ability to keep you
informed as quickly as we would like about some of the important
and interesting developments going on at local level and in
Brussels which impact on our school community.

Study in Hungary
Hungary offers high-standard programs in the fields of Medical, Dentistry and Veterinary sciences at centuries-old universities
in Budapest, Szeged and Pécs.
All three universities offer you identical medical programs in English.

Faculty of Medicine
Degree: Doctor of Medicine (M.D.)
Length of studies: 12 semesters

Faculty of Dentistry
Degree: Doctor of Dentistry (D.M.D.)
Length of studies: 10 semesters

Faculty of Veterinary Sciences
Degree: Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M.)
Length of studies: 11 semesters
During the past two decades more than 10.000 international students got enrolled, e.g. from Germany, Norway, Sweden,
Cyprus, Greece, Turkey and Spain. International programs in English and German exist already since 1983.
„What can Hungarian Universities offer to me?” – you may ask. „Why do I choose Hungary?
The programs there are run by highly qualified academic staff and seminars are held in small groups, giving possibilities to
close contact with other students and the professors.
Education is in the credit system, all degrees are automatically recognized in all member states of the European Union.
All universities are located either in the capital or in traditional university towns with lively international student communities
and rich cultural life.
You may apply in Febuary, or even later to Hungarian universities. The condition of admission is not based on your secondary
school grades, rather on the success at the entrance examination which includes multiple choice test in biology, chemistry and
English, and an interview with a professor.
Should you now study in a non-scientific class, thus do not learn biology and chemistry, you have the possibility to enroll to a
pre-medical course that helps you to catch up. You may apply to this pre-medical course even if you wish to continue your
studies at a university in another country.
LIVE, STUDY, GET EXPERIENCE IN HUNGARY
For further information on the programs, visit http://www.studyhungary.hu, and for help and assistance please refer to the
representative of the Hungarian universities in Luxembourg, Ms. Katalin HALÁSZ: [email protected].
The European School Science Symposium is an annual science competition between
groups of students from the 13 European Schools.
A four-day symposium designed to strengthen interest in science, encourage cooperation and promote cross-national teamwork.

"The role of the school
psychologist"
This was a well attended meeting, with some 80 parents
and also some teachers present. The meeting was chaired
by Ian Dennis. He introduced the three guest speakers:
Mme. Zoe COTSIS, Mme. Virgine BATAILLE, Mme. Sabine
FASS. He thanked the School Directors for their support
and the SEN/LS Working Group of the APEEE(1) for
organising and setting up the meeting.
The arrival of the school psychologists reflects a long battle
in the School Administration Board for the appropriate
budget allocation, and represents an important opportunity
for the school community as a whole. This meeting aimed
to describe their role, and illustrate what kinds of problems
were appropriate for them to deal with, and clarify how
such problems might be handled. Initial presentations were
followed by a lengthy question and answer session which
provided further useful information. Interpretation was
arranged between English, French and German.
The
school
psychologists
are
NOT
there
to
assess/diagnose/treat children with problems, or to
mediate in family conflict. However there is no problem
which would not be appropriate for them to be approached
with. They would then use their role as advisors to all
members of the school community, and would provide links
to appropriate external organizations when necessary.
Contact details were communicated as below. The school
will be urged to include this information on the website and
in the memorandum which is issued to all parents at the
start of the school year.

Importantly, the three school psychologists act together,
although they are appointed to the separate school
administrations (Lux.1: Mme.Bataille and Mme.Cotsis,
Lux.2: Mme.Fass). Consequently they cover Anglophone,
Francophone and Germanophone communities directly
(and are each multilingual) and can cover other
nationalities with interpretation, if necessary(2). As there is
no Lux.2 secondary cycle, Mme.Fass expects to deal more
with nursery and primary pupils, but all three experts can
provide advice concerning pupils of all ages. One or other
of the psychologists is available throughout the school
week.
They are experienced professionals, and discussions are
subject to standard ethical guidelines. In Luxembourg,
confidential discussions with persons over the age of 18
would only be disclosed to others in three situations: (a)
intent to self-harm, (b) intent to harm others, (c) intent to
commit a criminal act. Of course, most consultations in
school context will concern minors under the age of 18,
where slightly different confidentiality rules apply. Where
there is any disclosure (e.g. to school administration or to
an external body), parents will always be informed in full in
advance, but this does not amount to seeking their prior
agreement.
- It is therefore conceivable that in certain circumstances, a
referral to an external psychologist would be recommended
against the wishes of the parents, but this would never
happen without their knowledge.
- In response to a specific example, where a child
voluntarily disclosed his/her harassment of another child,
but expressed remorse and claimed to have ceased the
action, the psychologists would probably not disclose, but
each case would have to be taken on its merits.
If a pupil wishes to consult a psychologist, they can simply
drop in to the appropriate room at the school (Lux.1: B007
or B905, Lux.2: A027). Pupils or parents can make
appointments in advance.
Teachers can refer pupils to a psychologist if they identify a
need. In this case, they would interview the teacher and
the child both separately and together, and may attend
classes to observe pupil behaviour – after which they
would speak to the parents and if necessary, make a
referral to an external expert.
- The psychologists have no formal consultative role with
regard to disciplinary procedures, but, like the APEEE
management committee members, are available to advise
families in such circumstances.
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
- The psychologists expect to be involved in the drafting of
the child protection policy of the school, for which the
deputy director of Lux.1 school, Mr.Lufi, is responsible. The
APEEE is also involved in that process.
- The psychologists will also be invited to follow the work
of the „ETHOS‟ committee, where the APEEE is also
represented.
The psychologists can help to increase awareness in the
school community by talking to the teachers and
administration about the reasons why a child may be
having social or academic problems, This is another aspect
of inclusion.
The psychologists will have a specific role regarding SEN
pupils(3). They would attend SEN Advisory Group
meetings, meet class teachers and SEN teachers
throughout the year, see children, arrange external
referrals to local psychologists or visit national experts.
They can also meet with parents to explain the various
learning disorders and the diagnoses from external experts.
There was an extensive discussion of cyberbullying (eg.
abusive images and information on facebook, twitter and
similar social networking sites, or via emails, SMS and
instant messaging systems). Pupils are typically more
aware of modern technology than their parents, and
parents need to be aware of the immediate and long-term
dangers. Typically, cyberbullying is repeated ad infinitum
as the victims seek to gain revenge on the initial
perpetrators4 – and the whole thing remains in the public
domain. Children feel powerful with the possibilities that
cyberbullying offers, especially as it is more secret than
direct communication. Children need to be educated about
the power of expression through the written word and the
appropriate use of technology. Concrete recommendations
include: Beware of false identities in hat rooms; monitor
internet use; advise children what to do in the event of an
incident. Four profiles were suggested: isolated individuals
adopting false identities; power seekers; „evil girls‟; clicking
by mistake on inappropriate material.
Software is available to block/limit/monitor internet access,
and parents are advised to buy and install it. Another
useful software is „restrictive disclosure‟ programmes which
automatically prevent personal information such as names,
addresses, telephone numbers being published. Signs
which parents should look out for include: apparent
memory loss, under-eating, changes in behaviour,
illness/headaches. There should be zero tolerance for such
incidents: freedom of speech does not include a license to
harm others.
Information was also provided about telephone addiction.
Teenagers typically send an average of 80 SMS per day,
and typically have around 300 names on their contact list.
This sort of use could indicate addiction. Of course, not all
communication is negative, but although teenagers need
this sort of connection to their peers, the nearly constant
texting implies a loss of privacy. The consequences of
heavy use include: sleeplessness, stress, distraction from
work
which
can
negatively
influence
academic
performance, poor use of language, and increased
exposure to cyberbullying (especially to „sexting‟: the
sending of sexually explicit images). Only concerted action
is likely to have any impact on this phenomenon. Of
29
course, active parents can turn off the tap (eg. restrict use
to certain times of day such as refusing access between
10pm and 7am; limiting the budget) – but, as always, the
key answer is probably to maintain a close communication
with your child.
A question was asked about the linkup with the Guidance
Group, a network of confidential counsellors at the
Secondary School, made up of volunteer members of the
teaching staff who have followed some training. The
psychologists had provided some training to this group,
and a note was circulated at the start of term indicating its
existence. However, most parents present in the meeting
were unaware of it. The services of the group are not
clearly understood and it was recommended that greater
publicity could be given to the network, and their role,
including specific information about their availability and
their approach to disclosure of information obtained. The
Guidance Group teachers can be found on the School website, clicking first on Secondary, then on Documents. The
list appears in a doc dated 27 Nov 2009.
The psychologists were recommended to take contact with
colleagues in other European Schools, notably in Brussels
(which are of similar size and could have similar problems).
The psychologists were asked to define hyperactivity, but
given the complex and varied nature of this problem
preferred to see the family concerned individually.
The psychologists will be visiting classrooms to explain
their role, and how they can be contacted, starting in
January(5).
A question was asked about peer pressure to buy GSM,
and about the school policy on GSM usage at school. This
is not really the domain of the school psychologists, but the
choice of whether or not to buy a GSM, as with how to
handle requests to buy the latest fashion clothing or the
latest computer game or any other item, clearly rests with
parents. Of course, the opportunity can be taken to explain
the reasons behind decisions in a way which is appropriate
for the age of the child.
- APEEE representatives understand the reasons why some
parents wish their children to have a GSM already from an
early age. They explained that, for obvious reasons, there
is a policy on children not using GSM in classrooms: the
way this is implemented by individual teachers has to be
taken up with them. Systems are available to block GSM
signals in certain areas (eg. meeting rooms of modern
offices) but these do not exist at the school.
There was a short discussion about inclusivity. The
European Schools cannot cater for all circumstances, but
policies have been adopted in recent years to try and
integrate children from many different backgrounds, and
the APEEE considers this to be an advantage for the whole
community.
The situation for SEN children in Luxembourg is believed to
have improved over time. Clearly, the concept of inclusivity
goes much further than this, and improvements remain to
be made in many areas: the APEEE is actively involved in
that process both at local and at inter-school level.
A question was asked concerning bullying of pupils by
teachers citing a concrete example of surprising behaviour.
30
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
Clearly the school policy on bullying cannot just refer to
pupil-pupil, teacherpupil or pupil-teacher aggressions. In
principle, the approach of the psychologists if asked to
advise on a teacher-pupil incident, would be similar to their
approach in other cases. Interviews would take
place with the pupil(s) concerned and the teacher, both
separately and together if necessary; parents and the
administration
would
be
contacted;
appropriate
recommendations would be made.
The psychologists confirmed that they would be prepared
to provide advice about bulimia, anorexia and other eating
disorders. They welcomed the opportunity to contribute to
the school/APEEE work on a new canteen call-for-tender.
(1) Mme. Rhonda Wilkinson, Mme. Birgitte Holst, Mme. Isabel Leite, Mme.
Marika Papasideri.
(2) In serious cases, the school is required to find locally a psychologist
speaking the required language , or to pay for someone from the home
country. This is considered more likely in nursery cycle than in higher levels
at the school, particularly given the nature of the school psychologists‟ role
(ie. „urgentiste‟, rather than long-term care).
(3) The annual reports for the Luxembourg schools (Lux.1 and Lux.2
combined) show 49 pupils altogether at 1.9.2008 for
whom a SEN convention has been signed: 8+1=9 in the nursery cycle,
15+5=20 in the primary cycle, 0+20=20 in the secondary cycle.
(4) The technology easily allows arguments to continue after school hours
that in the past would both begin and end on the playground.
(5) It will take time to complete this task: as at 1.9.2010 there are some
237 classes altogether in the Luxembourg schools (Lux.1+Lux.2 combined) :
26 in the nursery cycle (13+13), 89 in the primary cycle (52+37), 122 in the
secondary cycle (122+0).

DCSF Parental engagement in their child's learning & development Programme:
Consultative Group: Newsletter February 2010
The purpose of this bulletin is to update the Parental Engagement Consultative group on key programme activities.
Update on various projects since October 2009 (no particular order)
Children, Schools and Families Bill
The Children, Schools and Families Bill was presented to Parliament on 19 November 2009. This is known as First Reading and there was
no debate on the Bill at this stage. This Bill had a Second Reading debate on 11 January 2010 and was referred to a Public Bill
Committee on 19 and 21 January 2010. The Bill aims includes the provision
of guarantees for parents and pupils, setting out what they are entitled to expect from the scools system ; and a means of redress if
expectations are not met.
Pupil and Parent Guarantee - consultation
Public consultation on the draft Pupil and Parent Guarantee (PPG) document was published 11/1/2010. The full text of the PPG and the
consultation questions can be found at www.dcsf.gov.uk/consultations
The PPG brings together in one place an account of the key components of a good education with the focus on pupils and parents. This
will ensure that parents and children understand what they are entitled to expect from schools. It will also make clear the responsibilities
of parents and pupils in supporting schools to do their best for children.
In summary the Guarantees will:
 Introduce important new entitlements to ensure all children and young people get the best possible education and outline
existing provisions ;
 Relate to one or more of the pupil and parent ambitions set out in the Children, Schools and Families Bill ;
 Build on Every Child Matters, the Children's Plan, the White Paper (Yourchild, your schools, our future: building a 21st century
schools system ;
 Outline targeted interventions and support that will need to be provided for some children because of their particular needs and
circumstances ;
 Provide a clear way to put things right if they go wrong.
The PPG comes into effect September 2011. (Please note that therefore the draft of the PPG is describing things that will have, by that
point, already come into effect and so is written in the past tense).
New home-school agreements - consultation on the content of the statutory guidance
This is scheduled to commence early February and will last until mid-April2010.
Parental Engagement - Call for practice evidence
The Parental Engagement Programme includes a strand of work commissioning additional research on what practitioners and settings
can do to support and encourage stronger parental engagement.
We are formally contracting with organisations to undertake research and assist in the production of guidance and materials to increase
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
31
the quality and level of parental engagement.
The Institute of Education will produce academic research the conclusions of which will make clear to practitioners what they can do to
support and encourage stronger parental engagement by highlighting those initiatives which have proved to be most successful.
In addition we have chosen Edcoms to assist in producing guidance and materials to help schools, local authorities and other
stakeholders to improve their support to help the parents of school aged children engage with their child's learning and development.
Please note that we plan to share the information submitted to [email protected]
with researchers and delivery partners.
How primary and secondary schools help parents and carers to improve their child's learning
DCSF's School Standards Group has published guidance designed to highlight ways in which parental engagement can be rolled out
in primary and secondary schools.
The work highlights initiatives trialed in 15 schools and will act as a useful way to get the issue of parental engagement in the forefront
of stakeholders minds prior to the publication of the more comprehensive work already mentioned.
How primary and secondary schools help parents and carers to improve their child's learning" is now available for order at the link below.
Please forward details of the publication through your delivery chains. Hard copies are available free of charge and includes a DVD of
further information.

Consultation on school and pupil information regulations
Please click on the following link to access the DCSF public consultation on the Pupil and School Information Regulations:
http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/consultations/index.cfm?action=consultationDetails&consultationId=1692&external=no&menu=1
The Children's Plan Progress Report commits the Government to reviewing the secondary legislation which governs the information that
schools record and provide on pupils (in educational and curricular records and school reports); and on themselves (in prospectuses).
This consultation sets out proposed amendments to this legislation, which are intended to help parents to have better access to
information about their children's learning and development. When implemented, the revised regulations will be accompanied by
guidance for schools and local authorities - views on the content of the guidance are also welcomed.
Disability Discrimination Act 2005 and Disabled children: guidance for schools:
In November 2009 the DCSF and National Strategies issued a leaflet to help schools comply with their duties under the
DisabilityDiscrimination Act 2005 to eliminate harassment of disabled children and actively promote their well-being within schools.
The leaflet provides schools with a step-by-step,
easy to understand guide about the actions they must take to comply with their duties. To see the leaflet go to :
http://nationalstrategies.standards.dcsf.gov.uk/node/245305
Early Years: Provider Influence on the Home Learning Environment.
The Department has commissioned qualitative research to find out which early years provider qualities and behaviours are effective in
supporting parents to enrich their home learning environment.
It will also look at what kinds of interactions are deliverable by different kinds of providers delivering the Early Years Foundation Stage.
The research is scheduled to report at the end of the year, 2010.
The I-Sign – BSL Pilot Project
The I-Sign project to raise awareness of British Sign Language in families of deaf and hearing impaired children and to increase the
number of higher level BSL signers in the children's workforce is being taken forward by a consortium lead by the Royal National Institute
for the Blind. Other consortium members are the British Deaf Association, Signature, National Deaf Children's Society, University of
Central Lancashire, Merseyside Society for Deaf People and Exeter Royal Academy for Deaf Education. The project was launched in June
2009 and will run until March 2011 in two pilot areas in the North West and South West.
The I-Sign website is now up and running. For further information go to http://www.i-sign.org.uk/home
Achievement for All
The Achievement for All project aims to:
 improve the achievement outcomes of pupils with SEN ;
 improve these pupil's parents engagement with their schools; and
 improve these pupils wider outcomes.
The project launched in 450 schools across the country in September 2009. Early evidence has shown that it is having a positive impact
and head teachers in particular have welcomed the collaborative nature of the project and the capacity to refocus and examine their
strategies. In the first term National Strategies and the University of East London delivered training to teachers on holding a structured
conversation with parents. The aim of the conversation is for teachers to listen to parents, ensure that parents are getting information in
a way that suits them and also work together to ensure that targets for the pupil are stretching enough to
help the pupil fulfil their potential. This training has been delivered to 400 teachers and cascaded to the other teachers in the pilot.
Services for Disabled Children - Parental Survey:
The second national indicator and sub-indicators of parental experience of services for disabled children were published on 15th
December, together with local level equivalents for almost all local authorities (LAs) and primary care trusts (PCTs).The national score
has increased by two indicator points, from 59 in the first year to 61.
Families Green Paper
Support for All:the Families and Relationships Green Paper was published on Wednesday 20 January. It sets out a wide range of
measures to support all families as they bring up their children and to help families cope with times of stress and difficulty. The proposals
recognise that while all families need some help, there are families in our society with complex needs and others who require additional-
32
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
and sometimes non-negotiable- support.
The proposals aim to influence factors that can strengthen or weaken family life, such as the choices available about balancing
employment with bringing up children; and how welcoming and accessible public services are to families of all kinds.
The Paper focuses mostly on supporting family relationships by enabling families to help themselves. It also considers the position of
children and other family members when family relationships have broken down.
Some of the policy proposals can be implemented straight away; others are for consultation or will take longer to put into place. Visit the
DCSF Consultation site to respond to the consultation which ends 21/4/10:
http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/consultations/index.cfm?action=consultationDetails&consultationId=1685&external=no&menu=1
Sure Start Children's Centre's
A major national communications campaign is underway to promote children's centres. It aims to raise awareness among parents of the
services on offer and encourage them to go to their nearest centre. The campaign includes radio adverts, bus shelter posters, adverts in
consumer magazines and on video screens in over 1300 GP surgeries from now until the middle of December. Further activity will take
place between January and the end of
March 2010.
The Lamb inquiry
The Lamb Inquiry published its final report on the 16 December 2009. This report builds on interim reports into how to improve parental
confidence in the education system. The interim reports have already led to the parent's right of appeal and raising SEN as a priority for
Ofsted being set as
clauses in the 5th session children, schools and
families Bill.The Inquiry made 51 recommendations; all but three were immediately
accepted in a SoS response made on the day.
Recommendations focused on ensuring a focus on children's outcomes, strengthening parental voice in the system, more strategic local
level approaches, strengthening accountability in the system and different models for providing services. A full government
implementation plan will be published shortly.
Behavior and Attendance
A new booklet for parents, Working Together for Good Behaviour in Schools, published in September 2009, sets out the powers that
schools have in relation to children's behaviour; every parent's responsibility for ensuring the good behaviour of their children; and what
parents can expect from the school and what they can do if they have
concerns that these are not being used fairly or effectively. It is vital that head teachers and teachers are able to gain the support of
parents and pupils when addressing poor behaviour. Copies of the leaflet can be found at:
www.teachernet.gov.uk/publications
Disabled Parents: CfBTResearch/ University of Strathclyde
Schools could do more to support disabled parents says researcher Richard Brunner of the Department of Educational & Professional
Studies. The call comes at the end of a 12-month study into how parents with mobility impairments, sensory impairments, learning
disabilities and mental distress are involved in their children's education.
Researchers Mr Brunner, Professor Kirsten Stalker, Dr June Mitchell and Ms Roseann Maguire, asked parents in the North of England and
Scotland to share examples of-good practices by schools. Mr Brunner said: "Previous research has shown that children do better when
their parents are involved in their education. Under the Disability Discrimination Act 2005, disabled parents have the right to be just as
involved in their children's education as any other parent."
The main findings show that schools can best help disabled parents be equally involved by:
 Making anticipatory adjustments that help disabled parents in general, such as making school buildings accessible or using large
print for all letters home.
 Discussing a disabled parent's needs with them and tailoring adjustments for each individual. This can include, for example,
speaking - rather than writing - to a parent with a learning disability about their child's homework or minimising stress when
meetings are held involving parents with mental distress.
 Continuing to offer generic support for all parents. For example, disabled parents said parent support officers, family support
groups and homework clubs often served their needs well.
Mr Brunner said every class in the UKwas likely to have some students with parents who are disabled people. "Accordingto the best data
we could find, one in nine parents in the UKis a disabled person.
These parents have been far too invisible for far too long. More account needs to be taken of their support needs so that their children
have an equal opportunity to thrive in school."
In partnership with the CfBT Education Trust, the research findings have been used to write a guidance document for schools and
information for parents. The documents can be accessed on line at the CfBT Education Trust website:

L’engagement parental dans le programme de développement et d’apprentissage de leur enfant
D‟après la Newsletter du Groupe Consultatif du Département britannique pour les Enfants, les Ecoles et les Familles
(Department for Children, Schools and Families, DCSF)
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
L‟objectif de ce bulletin est la mise à jour des principales activités du programme du Groupe Consultatif d‟Engagement Parental
(Parental Engagement Consultative Group, PECG).
Mise à jour de différents projets depuis octobre 2009 (pas d’ordre particulier)
Le projet de loi sur les Enfants, les Ecoles et les Familles a été présenté au Parlement le 19 novembre 2009 en première lecture et il
n‟y a pas eu de débat à ce stade. Le débat a eu lieu en seconde lecture le 11 janvier 2010 et le projet a été présenté au Comité des
projets de loi du domaine public les 19 et 21 janvier 2010. Les objectifs du projet incluent la provision de garanties pour les parents
et les élèves, en précisant ce à quoi ils peuvent s‟attendre de la part du système scolaire ainsi que les moyens d‟y remédier si on ne
répond pas à leurs attentes.
Consultation sur la Garantie pour les Elèves et les Parents (Pupil and Parent Guarantee, PPG)
La consultation publique sur le document du projet de loi concernant la Garantie pour les Elèves et les Parents (PPG) a été publiée le
11/1/2010. Le texte complet de la PPG ainsi que les questions de la consultation peuvent être consultés sur le site
www.dcsf.gov.uk/consultations.
La PPG rassemble en un endroit unique l‟explication des principales composantes d‟une bonne éducation en mettant l‟accent sur les
élèves et les parents, dans le but que les parents et les enfants comprennent ce qu‟ils sont en droit d‟attendre des écoles. Cela
rendra également les responsabilités des parents et des élèves dans leur soutien aux écoles plus claires afin qu‟ils fassent de leur
mieux pour les enfants.
En résumé, la Garantie permettra :
 D‟introduire des droits nouveaux et importants assurant la meilleure éducation possible à tous les enfants et tous les
jeunes et de souligner les dispositions existantes ;
 De faire le lien avec une ou plusieurs des ambitions des élèves et des parents exposées dans le projet de loi sur les
Enfants, les Ecoles et les Familles ;
 De construire sur le Plan des Enfants, le Livre blanc (« Votre Enfant, vos écoles, notre future : construire le système
scolaire du 21ème s. »);
 De souligner des interventions ciblées et de soutenir ce qu‟il sera nécessaire de fournir à certains enfants en raison de leurs
besoins particuliers ou des circonstances ;
 De fournir un moyen clair de redresser les choses si elles vont de travers.
La PPG entrera en vigueur en septembre 2011 (merci de noter que par conséquent, l‟avant-projet de PPG décrit les choses qui seront
déjà entrées en application à cette période et est donc écrit au passé).
Nouveaux accords maison-école : consultation sur le contenu de l’orientation statutaire :
Le début de la consultation est prévue début février et durera jusqu‟à la mi-avril 2010.
Engagement parental – Appel à témoignage sur la pratique
Le Programme sur l‟Engagement Parental inclue un vaste travail supposant des recherches additionnelles sur ce que les praticiens et
les répartitions par groupes de niveau peuvent faire pour soutenir et encourager un engagement parental plus important.
Nous sommes en train de contractualiser avec des organisations pour entreprendre des recherches et aider à la production
d‟orientations ainsi que de matériel destinés à améliorer la qualité et le niveau de l‟engagement parental.
L‟Institut pour l‟Education fournira les conclusions des recherches académiques qui permettront aux praticiens de se rendre compte
de ce qu‟ils peuvent faire pour soutenir et encourager un engagement parental plus important par la mise en relief des initiatives qui
se sont avérées les plus réussies.
De plus, nous avons choisi Edcoms pour nous fournir une assistance dans la production de nouvelles orientations ainsi que de
matériel destinés à aider les écoles, les autorités locales et les autres acteurs à améliorer leur aide aux parents d‟enfants en âge de
fréquenter l‟école pour l‟apprentissage et le développement de leur enfant.
Les informations transmises seront partagées avec les chercheurs et les différents partenaires à l‟adresse :

Comment les écoles primaires et secondaires aident les parents et les tuteurs à améliorer l’apprentissage de leur
enfant
Le Groupe sur les Standards à l’Ecole du Département britannique pour les Enfants, les Ecoles et les Familles a publié
des orientations destinées à mettre en lumière les moyens avec lesquels l‟engagement parental peut être étendu dans les écoles
primaires et secondaires.
Les travaux soulignent les initiatives mises en place dans 15 écoles et contribueront efficacement à mettre en avant la problématique
de l‟engagement parental auprès des acteurs avant la publication des travaux préalablement mentionnés.
« Comment les écoles primaires et secondaires aident les parents et les tuteurs à améliorer l‟apprentissage de leur enfant » peut à
présent être commandé à partir du lien ci-dessous. Des copies sont disponibles gratuitement et contiennent un DVD d‟informations

Le Rapport sur les Progrès du Plan pour les Enfants contraint le gouvernement à revoir la législation secondaire concernant
l‟information que les écoles enregistrent et fournissent sur les élèves (dans les données sur l‟éducation et le curriculum ainsi que dans
les rapports scolaires), et sur elles-mêmes (prospectus).

Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
Cette consultation expose les amendements proposés pour cette législation, qui sont destinés à aider les parents à obtenir un
meilleur accès à l‟information concernant l‟apprentissage et le développement de leur enfant. Lorsqu‟ils entreront en vigueur, les
règlements révisés seront accompagnés par des orientations pour les écoles et les autorités locales.
Loi de 2005 sur la Discrimination en matière de Handicap et d’Enfants Handicapés : orientations pour les écoles
En novembre 2009, le Département britannique pour les Enfants, les Ecoles et les Familles et Stratégies Nationales ont publié une
brochure pour aider les écoles à remplir leurs obligations résultant de la loi de 2005 sur la Discrimination en matière de Handicap
dans l‟élimination du harcèlement des enfants handicapés et la promotion active de leur bien-être au sein des écoles. Cette brochure
fournit aux écoles un guide facile à comprendre, détaillant étape par étape les actions à entreprendre pour répondre à leurs
obligations. La brochure peut être consultée à l‟adresse : http://nationalstrategies.standards.dcsf.gov.uk/node/245305
Premières années : influence sur l’environnement de l’apprentissage à la maison
Le Département a demandé une étude qualitative afin de déterminer quel fournisseur de qualités et de comportements durant les
premières années est efficace pour inciter les parents à enrichir leur environnement d‟apprentissage à la maison. L‟étude déterminera
également quel type d‟interactions est fourni par les différents types de fournisseurs produisant l‟étape de fondation des premières
années. Le rapport de l‟étude est prévu pour la fin de l‟année 2010.
Le projet-pilote I-Sign – BSL
Le projet I-Sign, destiné à éveiller l‟intérêt pour le langage des signes britannique (British Sign
Language, BSL) dans les familles d‟enfants sourds ou malentendants et à accroître le niveau d‟enfants ayant une grande maîtrise de
ce langage, est dirigé par un consortium mené par l‟Institut Royal National pour les Aveugles. Les autres membres du consortium
sont l‟Association Britannique pour les Sourds, la Société Nationale pour les enfants sourds, l‟Université du Lancashire Central, la
Société Merseyside pour les Sourds, et l‟Académie Royale Exeter pour l‟Education des Sourds. Le projet a été lancé en juin 2009 et
durera jusqu‟en mars 2011 dans deux régions-pilote du Nord-Ouest et du Sud-Ouest.

La réussite pour tous
Le projet



« La réussite pour tous » vise à :
Améliorer les résultats du niveau des enfants SEN ;
Améliorer l‟engagement des parents de ces élèves dans leurs écoles ; et
Améliorer les résultats de ces enfants.
Le projet a été lancé dans 450 écoles dans le pays en septembre 2009. Les premières expériences ont démontré son impact positif.
Les professeurs principaux en particulier ont salué la nature collaborative du projet et sa capacité à se recentrer et à examiner les
stratégies. Durant le premier trimestre, Stratégies Nationales et l‟Université de Londres-Est ont formé les professeurs à tenir une
conversation structurée avec les parents. Le but est d‟inciter les professeurs à écouter les parents, de telle sorte que les parents
reçoivent l‟information d‟une façon qui leur convient et de collaborer afin de s‟assurer que les objectifs soient suffisamment étendus
pour aider l‟élève à réaliser son potentiel. La formation a été assurée auprès de 400 enseignants et a eu un effet bénéfique sur les
autres enseignants du projet-pilote.
Services pour les enfants handicapés – Enquête parentale :
Le second indicateur national et les sous-indicateurs de l‟expérience parentale relative aux services pour les enfants handicapés ont
été publiés le 15 décembre, de concert avec leurs équivalents au niveau local pour presque toutes les autorités locales (LAs) et les
Caisses régionales de santé (primary care trusts, PCTs). Le niveau national a augmenté de deux points d‟indicateurs, de 59 la
première année à 61.
Le Livre vert sur les Familles
« Soutien pour tous : le Livre Vert sur les Familles et les Relations » a été publié mercredi 20 janvier. Il expose une grande variété
de mesures pour soutenir toutes les familles dans l‟éducation de leur enfant, particulièrement dans des moments stressants et
difficiles. Les propositions reconnaissent que si toutes les familles ont besoin d‟aide, il existe des familles dans notre société avec des
besoins complexes et d‟autres qui nécessitent un soutien supplémentaire, et parfois non négociable.
Les propositions visent à influencer les facteurs qui peuvent renforcer ou affaiblir la vie familiale, comme les choix disponibles entre
l‟emploi et l‟éducation des enfants, ou le caractère accueillant et accessible des services publics pour toute sorte de familles.
Le Livre met surtout l‟accent sur le soutien aux relations familiales en permettant aux familles de s‟entraider. Il étudie également la
position des enfants et d‟autres membres de la famille lorsque les relations familiales sont brisées.
Certaines des propositions peuvent être appliquées immédiatement ; d‟autres sont pour consultation ou prendront plus de temps à
être mises en place.
Les Centres pour les Enfants ayant un bon départ
Une importante campagne de communication nationale est en cours afin de promouvoir les centres pour enfants. Elle vise à éveiller
l‟attention des parents sur les services offerts et à les encourager à se rendre dans les centres les plus proches. La campagne
englobe des annonces à la radio, des posters sur les abris-bus, des annonces dans les magazines de consommateurs et sur les
écrans dans plus de 1 300 cabinets de médecins généralistes jusqu‟à la mi-décembre.
L’enquête Lamb
L‟enquête Lamb a publié son rapport final le 16 décembre 2009. Ce rapport est basé sur des rapports intermédiaires destinés à
améliorer la confiance parentale dans le système éducatif. Les rapports intermédiaires ont déjà conduit au droit d‟appel des parents
et à élever les SEN au rang de priorité pour Ofsted en tant que clauses dans la cinquième session du projet de loi sur les enfants, les
écoles et les familles. L‟enquête a fait 51 recommandations ; l‟ensemble des recommandations, sauf trois d‟entre elles, ont été
acceptées dans une réponse SOS faite le jour-même.
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10
Les recommandations se concentrent sur les résultats des enfants, une prise en compte plus importante de la voix des parents dans
le système, plus d‟approches stratégiques au niveau local, le renforcement de la comptabilité dans le système et différents modèles
pour fournir des services. Un plan gouvernemental global de mise en application sera publié prochainement.
Comportement et fréquentation
Un nouveau livret pour les parents, « Collaborer pour une bonne attitude à l‟école », publié en septembre 2009, expose les pouvoirs
des écoles dans le comportement des enfants, la responsabilité de chaque parent dans le bon comportement de leur enfant, et ce
que les parents sont en droit d‟attendre de l‟école et comment ils peuvent agir s‟ils ont des craintes sur leur utilisation partiale ou
effective. Il est très important que les professeurs principaux et les professeurs soient capables de gagner le soutien des parents et
des élèves pour répondre à la mauvaise conduite. Des copies du livret peuvent être consultées sur :

Parents handicapés : Recherche CfBT/ Université de Strathclyde
Les écoles pourraient faire davantage pour soutenir les parents handicapés, affirme le chercheur Richard Brunner du Département
sur les Etudes Educatives et Professionnelles. L‟appel intervient à l‟issue d‟une étude de 12 mois sur la façon dont les parents à
mobilité réduite, à déficience sensorielle, en difficulté d‟apprentissage et à déficience mentale sont impliqués dans l‟éducation de leur
enfant. Les chercheurs M. Brunner, le Professeur Kirsten Stalker, le Dr June Mitchell et Roseann Maguire ont demandé aux parents
dans le Nord de l‟Angleterre et en Ecosse de partager des exemples de bonnes pratiques par les écoles. M. Brunner a affirmé :
« Des recherches antérieures ont montré que les enfants réussissaient mieux lorsque leurs parents étaient impliqués dans leur
éducation. La loi de 2005 sur la Discrimination en matière de Handicap accorde le droit aux parents handicapés d‟être tout autant
impliqués dans l‟éducation de leurs enfants que n‟importe quel autre parent. »
Les principales découvertes montrent que les écoles peuvent aider le mieux les parents handicapés à être impliqués de façon
égalitaire par les moyens suivants :

Effectuer des ajustements de façon anticipée, comme rendre les bâtiments scolaires accessibles ou utiliser de grands
caractères pour tous les courriers à la maison.

Discuter avec les parents handicapés de leurs besoins et en effectuant les ajustements nécessaires pour chaque individuel.
Ceci implique, par exemple, de parler plutôt que d‟écrire à un parent en difficulté d‟apprentissage pour les devoirs de son
enfant, ou de diminuer le stress lors de l‟organisation de réunions dans lesquelles des parents à déficience mentale sont
impliqués.

Continuer à offrir un soutien générique à tous les parents. Par exemple, les parents handicapés relèvent que les officiers de
soutien aux parents, les groupes de soutien aux familles et les clubs pour les devoirs répondent souvent bien à leurs
besoins.
M. Brunner a affirmé que chaque classe au Royaume-Uni a une chance de comporter des étudiants dont les parents sont handicapés.
« Selon les meilleures données trouvées, 1 parent sur 9 au Royaume-Uni est handicapé. Ces parents ont été trop invisibles trop
longtemps. Leurs besoins en soutien devront être pris en compte de façon à ce que leurs enfants puissent bénéficier d‟une chance
égale de réussite à l‟école. »

MERITE JEUNESSE
The Award Ceremony
On Tuesday the 23 February 2010, at the Athénée de Luxembourg, a long line of smartly attired young adults
eargerly awaited their well-earned award from H.R.H Grand Duc Jean and H.R.H Prince Guillaume as well as the
Minister of Family and Integration, Mrs Marie-Josée Jacobs at the annual Mérite Jeunesse‟ Awards ceremony. The
plush hall was brimming with youthful talent exemplified by the flawless renditions of the Athénée orchestra who
entertained the audience throughout the ceremony.
After the presentation of the winner of the « Prix du Mérite Jeunesse 2009 », awarded for the project
« Rouloto‟graphe » some of the Gold holders shared with the audience their outstanding and quite diverse
experiences they gained with the Mérite and the impact this had on their young lifes.
Congratulations to all participants for the unwavering efforts they have done in the course of the last months !
Besides David and Linda Cadwallader also received well earned praise and were honored for their extaordinary
services with a certificate of recognition. Having run the Mérite for many years at the European school they got
leaders and students alike enthusiastic for the programme and also made it possible to offer a National expedition
for all the Mérite units here in Luxembourg. Now as they have settled down in Southern France a new team of well
trained tutors, as Stephen Symons, Feona Crompton, Annette Weaver and Trevor King, took on the idea and continue
doing a fantastic job at the European School as we could see by the impressive number of participants at the
ceremony.
From the intial the Mérite Jeunesse has been founded in 1993 in Luxembourg and is chaired by H.R .H the Prince
Guillaume as the President of the Administrative Council and supported by a board of 12 members. Since then the
foundation has grown constantly and is considered now of being a full member of the International Award Association
and a part of the « European-Mediterranean and Arab States Region ». Over 6 million young people have taken up
the Award challenge worldwide in more than 120 countries.

MERITE JEUNESSE Exploring the world…
and yourself.
Spring is nearly here and for the
past fifteen years for Linda
Cadwallader and myself that has
meant attending the Presentation of
Awards for the Merite Jeunesse.
The awards are presented each year
by SAR Grand Duke Jean and SAR
Prince Guillaume, in the presence of
government ministers, parents and
of course the participants, many of
whom come from the European
School. Once again this year there
were several dozen awards for
students at the school, at Bronze,
Silver and Gold levels.
What is it?
Despite the fact that we have been going for so long, there are still parents who have no idea of who we are
or what we do. The Merite Jeunesse (also known as the Duke of Edinburgh Award in UK) exists world-wide
to promote the development of personal skills, initiative, self confidence and achievement among young
people. Started in 1956, the award has over 6 million award holders and many thousands of active adults who
support them. Each participant takes part in a range of activities each year from four areas (Sport, Skill,
Service and Adventurous activity). Participants choose what they will undertake, and the pace at which they
will proceed. The activities are non competitive but represent a challenge to be completed. Participants may
start at age 14 and continue to the age of 24. There are around 80 to 100 students from the school active at
any one time, and several hundred have gained awards. The web site is linked to the school home page
(merite.letzebuerg.org)
What do they do?
Ad Parentes No. 3/2009-10

Taking the past couple of years as an example, students take part in a huge range of sports, from scuba to
rock climbing, sailing to skiing. Their skills may be cultural (music, drama, photography); linguistic (Japanese,
Danish, Swedish) or creative (art, knitting, model making, web site design.) For service they work regularly
either in Luxembourg for Tiers Monde, for the International Bazaar, Amnesty, the Protection Civil, or Red
Cross) or further afield, working in hospitals, nature reserves, orphanages and schools in Europe, Africa and
Asia.
The adventurous activity usually involves backpacking for several days, but we have also had
expeditions by bicycle and canoe. We run training weekends and expeditions in Luxembourg (often in the
Petite Suisse) but also in the Alps and the Pyrennees. Our main 2009 expedition was in the Vosges, but some
participants also took part in explorations and expeditions organized by other groups in Finland and China. At
Gold level there is also an additional activity, a residential week away from your friends. Again this can be
local to Luxembourg, or meeting with other participants, (an environmental week in Portugal, working in an
orphanage in Tanzania, or on a lion reserve in South Africa!)
Why do they do it?
You need to ask them! At the award presentation they get a certificate, but also a huge sense of
achievement. Many speak of exceeding the limits they thought they had, both physically and mentally,
developing a resilience and mental toughness that they were not aware of, and forming friendships born out
of completing a difficult task together as a team. The award is highly valued by universities and employers,
who recognize the transferable skills the participants have demonstrated.
Who helps them?
In the European School there are a team of teachers supporting the programme, among others Mrs Weaver,
Ms Crompton, Mr Symons and Mr King. Until recently there was also Mr Penn (now at the ISL, which also
participates in the award) and the two of us, David & Linda Cadwallader. For us the presentation was a
chance to meet old friends from the award, and for the last time to congratulate “our” award participants,
some of whom had worked closely with us for several years. Well, maybe not the last. There is already talk
of expeditions in the Pyrennees where we are now located, renovating a mountain refuge for walkers
(parents interested can follow our progress on www.refugemadeloc.com) and we are pretty sure that we will
continue some connection with the award, and the parents and students who have worked with us over the
years.

My name is Grace Courlander. I am currently a first year student at the University of Exeter,
studying English and French. This time last year, I was a student at the European School of
Luxembourg, standing on a platform in front of Grand Duc Jean, giving a presentation on my
time with the Merite Jeunesse.
The first thing I said when I was told about the Merite Jeunesse was
“absolutely no way will I be doing that!”. The idea of waking up in a
frozen tent to face another day of continuous walking, surrounded by
creepy-crawlies somehow just didn't appeal to me. I ended up staying for
the three years and loved it! I'm going to tell you a little bit about my
experience with the Merite Jeunesse de Luxembourg.
To receive an award, you must show commitment in three areas: service, skill and sport. These
are left up to you to decide. For my service, I concentrated mostly on childcare, helping in the
crèche at the international bazaar and doing free babysitting. I also worked in the school Tiers
Monde discos, which was fun as well as work! For my gold award, I decided to try something
new and, as I would be studying literature at university, I chose to help out in the school library.
For my school, I learnt to play the piano. I had already been doing this activity, but decided to
use it as my skill in order to advance it even more. I like to play a bit of everything, be it pop
songs, jazz music or classical pieces. I completed all of my exams up to grade 6. Finally, for my
sport, I did ballet. Again, I had already been going to classes but doing it for Merite Jeunesse
meant that I would get credit for the hard work I put in. I passed my final exam in July last year
with merit. Every other year, the school puts on a show in which the students can participate
and also help to choreograph.
That was the easy part of the award. The slightly more challenging part, but no less fun, is the
expeditions. On my bronze expedition, we had the first frost of the year and it got so cold that
we had to wear all our clothes. Five of us spent the night in a three man tent! My silver
expedition took place in the Vosges, where it
rained so much that my waterproofs came back to
Luxembourg no longer waterproof! We had some
excellent survival practice in watching out for
hypothermia in our group. Now, of course, having
had all kinds of awful weather on all our previous
expeditions, the gold exploration to Banyuls turned out to be extremely hot! Instead of
having to look out for hypothermia, we were warned against heatstroke. It was on this hike
that we realised that the hills in Luxembourg were really not that big! We walked along the
border between France and Spain for three days and, when we reached the beach, took
part in activities such as sea kayak and snorkelling. We also helped the locals by painting a
refuge which was covered in graffiti. The most amazing thing about these expeditions is
just how much you bond with your group: I have made friends for life on these trips.
To complete your gold award, you must have done a residential. I joined an environmental project on a
natural park outside Lisbon, Portugal for one week. This was an international event which meant I made
lots of friends from many different countries. In total, we were 70 participants from 13 countries around
the world. We worked in the natural park during the day, helping to clear the beaches of invasive plants,
making bird boxes and clearing riverbeds. We also took part in environmental conferences. This was
certainly challenging work but lots of fun! I really enjoyed myself and felt proud of what I had achieved.
Finally, here are just a few impressions about my time with the Merite that will stay with me forever:
a. “Don't worry guys, I know exactly where we are!”
“Where?”
“We're lost!”
 “Left or right?”
“Left, definitely left”
“How are you so sure?”
“It's down and I'm not walking up anymore hills!”

U.G.D.A. –Remise de Diplômes
Des musiciens honorés
OBERANVEN La cérémonie de remise des diplômes de l‟UGDA a rassemblé plus d‟un millier de personnes.
L‟école de musique de l‟union Grand-Duc Adolphe a remis à 616 élèves les diplômes de l‟année scolaire 2008/2009 dans la
grande salle du centre culturel et sportif Am Sand. Une cérémonie durant laquelle étaient offerts plusieurs moments
musicaux.
« L’an passé, le nombre d’élèves de l’école de musique UGDA a fortement augmenté. Nous avions l’an passé
4 400 élèves et cette année nous avons enregistré une progression de 300 élèves. Nous avons aujourd’hui
plus de 4 700 élèves et 180 enseignants que nous détachons dans les différentes sections », annonce
d‟emblée le directeur de l‟école de musique de l‟UGDA, heureux de voir que la musique continue à rassembler de plus en
plus d‟amateurs.
Main dans la main avec les communes
Un succès qu‟il explique par le fait que l‟école de musique est au plus près de la population étant donné que les cours
sont dispensés dans un grand nombre des communes du pays, en collaboration avec quatre syndicats intercommunaux.
Rappelons que les communes sont conventionnées avec l‟UGDA qui assure des cours de solfège et apprend à jouer sur
différents instruments. Une proximité à laquelle s‟ajoutent les projets de coopération avec les villes et localités permettant
d‟encadrer les jeunes pendant des journées entières : « Dans les maisons relais, par exemple, nous avons
introduit des cours d’initiation de la musique. Un autre projet-pilote concerne le chant choral. Une centaine
d’adultes y participent. Un troisième point important c’est que des ensembles instrumentaux sont en train
de se créer afin de permettre aux musiciens d’intégrer par la suite une fanfare ou une chorale. » L‟offre de
formation musicale de l‟UGDA est de plus en plus importante. Cette année ont été introduits des cours de guitare
électrique qui s‟ajoutent aux autres cours d‟instruments à cordes.
De nouveaux cours sont créés au fil des ans à l‟initiative des communes travaillant main dans la main avec l‟UGDA.
La cérémonie d‟hier était consacrée à la remise des diplômes de la 1 ère mention en solfège, de la 3ème, 2ème et 1ère
mention ainsi que des certificats et diplômes de la division moyenne dans les différentes branches instrumentales et
vocales.
Les bourgmestres ou les échevins des communes ont remis aux 616 lauréats les diplômes et un petit cadeau offert par le
groupe d‟assurance La Luxembourgeoise. L‟événement était également rehaussé par la présence de Jacques Santer,
président honoraire de l‟UGDA depuis de nombreuses années.

Battle of the Bands 2010
The 5th European School Battle of the Bands competition ran in fine style on Friday
evening, 5th March. Between 19h00 and 22h00, eleven finalists played a set of two songs each
from their repertoire to a keen audience of more than 200 students (and some teachers and
parents). Styles varied from Death Metal to Hip-Hop, via Salsa/Jazz and passing through
Alternative Rock. It was simply unfortunate that a prior selection had to be made: all the
performers put in highly creditable efforts and their enjoyment was plain for all to see. An
invited jury included guests from Stage Music and Rockhal, who also provided some super
prizes. They chose 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners, and there was also an audience award. The
event was organised by Mr.Pods with help from Mr.Cafferky. Technical support was
provided by Mr.Feltes and the Backstage group under Mr.Lowe. While the audience vote
was being counted, musical entertainment was provided by The Blue Terraplanes. The whole
event was filmed for posterity and DVDs will be made available (see 2009 example below).
The participants (in alphabetic order, not in order of appearance) were:
3rd
1st
Ana & The Randefelts
The Callbacks
Hit Snooze
Project Yoko
S4L
Those Guys
2nd & Audience Award
Braindirt
Chateau Condominium
Jalsazz
The Riffs
The Signies
The winners, “Project Yoko”, will play at the Screaming Fields Festival organised by the
Rockhal in June, and a full evening gig at a venue in Luxembourg City. Second place
“Jalsazz” will play at the opening evening of the European School Science Symposium on 21 st
March, and a half-hour gig has been arranged for them at Sang & Klang. The traditional
food prize to 3rd place winners, drinks prize to 2nd place winners and clothing prize to 1st
place winners were supplemented by a rich haul of CDs, DVDs and music accessories.
WELL DONE TO ALL INVOLVED !

children in Year 5 primary of all language sections, to take place on Kirchberg, during the
summer term.
The road test is organised in accordance with guidelines issued by the Luxembourg
Authorities. To be successful it will require parent volunteers to help monitor the children

telephone (tel. 4301-33105 ) or by email ([email protected]) as quickly as possible.
L'administration de l'école et l'APEEE aimeraient à nouveau organiser une épreuve pratique sur vélo pour les élèves de la
5ème année primaire de l'ensemble des sections linguistiques, au Kirchberg, pendant le dernier trimestre.
L'épreuve aura lieu conformément aux lignes directrices édictées par les autorités luxembourgeoises. Pour assurer la
réussite de cette initiative, nous aurons besoin de parents bénévoles pour nous aider à surveiller les enfants pendant
certaines étapes clés de la route choisie – et ceci représentera évidemment une belle occassion de soutenir vos enfants !
Toute personne qui pense pouvoir se libérer quelques heures (surtout le matin) est invitée à prendre
contact avec le secrétariat de l'APEEE par téléphone (4301-33105 ) ou par courriel ([email protected]) le
plus vite possible.

DRITTE WELT GRUPPE
SPONSORED SPORTS DAY- JOURNÉE SPORTIVE PARRAINÉE
Dear Parents,
On Saturday 24 April 2010 from 10:30 to 15:30 the Third World Committee of the European Schools will organise a
sponsored swim and an obstacle course for the children of the Primary and “Maternelle”, in the school’s
swimming pool complex (access from the Maternelle car park). The pupils take part in one activity or both by asking
people to sponsor them. On April 24, the children hand in the money they collected to the organisers and they either
swim for 15 mn in groups of 10 to 12 at a time or go into the gym for the parcours. The funds collected support projects
of development concerning children in need, family healthcare and agricultural development in Ethiopia, R.D. of
Congo,Togo and Brazil. For information see site www.euroschool.lu/3monde
We assure you that all necessary measures will be taken to insure the safety of the children. We hope many of you will
support this fund-raising activity and we look forward to seeing you and your children on Saturday 24 April.
…………………………………………………………………………………………..
Chers Parents,
Le samedi 24 avril 2010, de 10h30 à 15h30, le Comité Tiers Monde organisera une Journée sportive parrainée :
natation et un parcours en salle, pour les enfants des cycles primaire et maternel, dans le complexe sportif de
l’École (accès par le parking de l'École maternelle).
Pour participer à une ou deux des activités, les enfants demandent aux personnes de leur entourage de les soutenir en
faisant un don. Le 24 avril, les enfants remettront aux organisateurs l‟argent qu‟ils auront collecté. Ils se rendront dans la
piscine pour nager pendant 15 mn, par groupes de 10 à 12 ou dans le gymnase pour effectuer le parcours. Les fonds
rassemblés seront destinés aux projets de développement que le Comité Tiers Monde soutient actuellement en Éthiopie,
en R.D. du Congo, au Togo et au Brésil. Pour plus d‟information, veuillez consulter le site www.euroschool.lu/3monde.
Nous nous engageons à prendre toutes les mesures nécessaires à la sécurité des enfants. Nous espérons que vous serez
nombreux à soutenir cette activité et serons heureux de vous accueillir avec vos enfants le samedi 24 avril.
…………………………………………………………………………………………..
Liebe Eltern,
Am Samstag, dem 24. April 2010, organisiert die Dritte Welt Gruppe von 10.30 Uhr – 15.30 Uhr für die Kinder der
Primärschulen und der Kindergartenklassen gesponserte Sportveranstaltungen im Schwimmbad / in der
Sporthalle der Europaschule (Zugang vom Parkplatz des Kindergartens).
Kinder, die an einer oder zwei Veranstaltungen teilnehmen möchten, bitten eine oder mehrere Personen ihrer Umgebung
als Sponsoren um eine Geldspende. Am 24. April übergibt jedes Kind seine erhaltene(n) Geldspende(n) den
Organisatoren. Die Kinder, die schwimmen möchten, begeben sich ins Schwimmbad und werden jeweils in Gruppen von
10-12 Personen 15 Minuten lang schwimmen. Wer am Hindernislauf teilnehmen will, begibt sich in die Sporthalle. Die
Dritte Welt Gruppe unterstützt zur Zeit mit den Geldspenden Entwicklungshilfeprojekte in Äthiopien, in der
Demokratischen Republik Kongo, in Togo und in Brasilien. Weitere Informationen finden Sie im Internet unter
www.euroschool.lu/3monde.
Selbstverständlich werden alle erforderlichen Maßnahmen ergriffen, um die Sicherheit Ihrer Kinder zu gewährleisten. Wir
hoffen auf Ihre Unterstützung und würden uns freuen, wenn wir am Samstag, dem 24. April, möglichst viele Eltern und
Kinder begrüßen könnten.

MATHS CLUB
Gostingen, 5.02.2010
Dear parents and teachers,
I would like to offer help with mathematics in and after school time for children in the primary school and the first 3 years
of secondary school.
I am a Dutch lady who lived with my husband and children in several countries. We have 5 children. I was always
involved in their schools. In the Netherlands I studied Social Pedagogy. Our youngest son is now in first secondary school.
I noticed that a lot of children had problems with their basic knowledge of Math.
In October 2000 I opened a Kumon-Math center in Darmstadt, Germany
For the last 3 years , I had my center in the International School „Schuldorf Bergstrasse‟ in Seeheim-Jugenheim,
Germany. Because we moved to Luxembourg, the center was taking over by somebody else.
It is very important for the children to have a solid base in mathematics. Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division,
fractions, negative and positive numbers (without calculator!!!)
On that you can build the mathematics in the secondary school.
If they don‟t have a solid basic knowledge of math , a lot of children will often have a very low self-esteem .They think
they can‟t do it ,but I am sure with a little bit of help they can !
In class it often goes to fast . Some need more time to learn their number skills before they move on to the next level. In
class there is not always time for that. Still it is necessary to practice more . Their self-esteem and confidence will grow
and they will do much better overall.
I have lots of ideas how we could do that. The most important thing is that the children benefit from this!
Kind regards,
Anne-Marie Beckers-Oudendijk

tutor dyslexic children after school in

– a structured, multi-sensory method of
teaching children to read. Your child
does not have to be dyslexic to benefit
