This report provides information on the structure of mainstream European education systems, from pre-primary to tertiary level for the 2020/21 school and academic year. It includes national schematic diagrams and a guide to reading the diagrams. It also contains a map visually showing the main organisational models of primary and lower secondary education in Europe: ‘single structured education’, ‘common core curriculum provision’ and ‘differentiated lower secondary education’.

The information is available for 43 European education systems covering 38 countries participating in the EU’s Erasmus+ programme.

The report’s content is in line with the Eurydice Network’s task: understand and explain how Europe’s different education systems are organised and how they work.
