Students from GOETE case studies contributed their views on educational trajectories in a number of videos and essays. Here we are giving a flavour of what GOETE topics mean to them.

Who decides on education?

Education has increasingly become an issue of public debates and an increasingly disputed societal value. The research project Governance of Educational Trajectories in Europe therefore asked how educational trajectories of children and young people evolve and how underlying decisions are being made.

During the last months of the project, all participating countries in GOETE have been busy with various activities: first, thematic and comparative analyses were conducted and publications for the dissemination findings were prepared for both the scientific community and for policy and practice circles concerned with children’s and young people’s educational trajectories inside and outside school, at the local, regional, national and European level. One important event in the conclusion of the project was held in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, that took place on March 21st, 2013

The GOETE research consortium has just released the sixth edition of the newsletter of the GOETE research project. Among other topics, it presents a report from the final conference and GOETE findings at a glance.
