Conclusions and recommendations
Schooling in Luxembourg is highly centralised with the Ministry of National Education and Vocational Training (MENFP) responsible for the planning and administration of all teaching in public schools. However, over recent years there has been a stronger role for schools in implementing evaluation and assessment policies, notably with the increased emphasis placed on school self-evaluation. The vast majority of students attends public schools and follows the national student learning objectives towards nationally recognised qualifications.
