1st plenary session
Strasbourg, 27 – 29 March 2012
Room 5, Palais de l’Europe
Information document on: « LANGUAGE POLICIES »
ITEM 8
Reminder of the context
Programmes related to languages (of schooling, foreign languages etc.) are addressed by two distinct but complementary structures within the Council of Europe (Department of Education):
-
The Language Policy Unit (Strasbourg – www.coe.int/lang) is responsible for devising language policies
-
The European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML - www.ecml.at), a Partial Agreement based in Graz (Austria) which has as “its mission the implementation of language policies and the promotion of innovative approaches to the learning and teaching of modern languages” according to Article 1 of its statute.
Title of the project/programme
-
OBJECTIVES AND EXPECTED RESULTS
1. Languages in formal education systems
Aims:
– to provide a platform for co-operation between language education policy-makers
– to assist member states in using the various guidelines, studies and instruments designed to facilitate the implementation of language education policies aimed at ensuring equity and quality in education.
Expected Results:
– spelling-out, in a number of national or regional curricula for various subjects (history, science, mathematics, literature, etc.), of competences required in the languages of schooling for all learning/teaching; extension of the bank of descriptors for competences in languages of schooling included on the Platform of resources and references for plurilingual and intercultural education;
– use by member states of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (foreign or second), in accordance with Recommendation CM(2008)7, to promote convergence of foreign language curricula;
– development of a number of national or regional curricula in the line with a genuinely plurilingual and intercultural education;
– online registration of new European Language Portfolios;
– translation into other languages of the Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters; publication of the new volume - Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters through Visual Media.
II. Linguistic integration of adult migrants (LIAM)
Aims
– to help member states to frame LIAM policies and practices consistent with the Council of Europe’s shared principles and values;
– where tests are concerned, to help to ensure that competence levels – usually defined with reference to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) – are defined in modulated, realistic and judicious terms, since the CEFR is not a norm, but a reference framework. Moreover, since it has been designed for foreign languages, its use must be specially adapted to meet the needs of migrants who are also learning language(s) by immersion.
Expected Results
– provision for member states of resources matching the requirements identified at conferences (2008 and 2010) and following two surveys;
– redesign of the “Migrants” section of the website;
– preparation of guidelines and instruments geared to the special needs of adult migrants, to provide a policy framework, and a basis for the introduction of programmes for learning the language of the host country, as well as assessment (of training, progress).

OUTLINE OF THE POLITICAL BACKGROUND TO THE PROJECT AND RELEVANT PREVIOUS ACHIEVEMENTS
I. Languages in formal education systems
Foreign/second languages
The signatories of the European Cultural Convention, “.... considering that the aim of the Council of Europe is to achieve a greater unity between its members....” (and that) “this aim would be furthered by a greater understanding of one another among the peoples of Europe....”, agreed to promote learning of the languages of the other contracting parties (Article 2).
The Convention, which came into force in 1954, is the basis of the various Council of Europe projects aimed at developing learners’ ability to communicate effectively and as active members of society (in foreign or second languages). The most successful text generated by these projects is the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment (CEFR), which is now available in 38 languages, and is widely used in Europe and other continents. For more information, see Modern Languages in the Council of Europe 1954–1997.
The CEFR is backed by an extensive range of instruments to promote its use by curriculum developers, teacher trainers, authors of classroom materials, and examiners.
Recommendation CM(2008)7 on the use of the CEFR and the promotion of plurilingualism insists on member states’ responsibilities regarding use of a common European framework.
The European Language Portfolio (ELP) is a personal document which makes the CEFR’s values, its approach to communication and action, and its language competence descriptors directly available to learners of all ages. It is also aimed at teachers, schools and other partners working with learners.
In 2000 the then Education Committee of the Council of Europe established the ELP Validation Committee with a mandate to receive draft ELPs and determine whether or not they were in conformity with the ELP Principles and Guidelines, also established by the Education Committee. The ELP was launched in 2001, the European Year of Languages. By December 2010, 116 ELPs had been validated, from 32 member states and 6 INGOs/international consortia. With this wealth of experience and resources, validation was replaced by on-line registration based on self-declaration monitored by the Secretariat. For further information; see the document ‘The Story So Far’.
To help member states to use the CEFR and ELP, the ECML (www.ecml.at) runs training workshops for teachers and examiners, and also provides targeted training activities for states which request them.
The European Commission has decided to base its European Indicator of Language Competence on the CEFR. The findings of its first survey on pupils’ language skills in the final year of compulsory schooling will be published in June 2012.
Holders of the European Union’s Europass use the CEFR’s scales of language competence to record their language skills.
The Language Policy Unit provides the expert guidance needed to revise modern language curricula in the light of the CEFR.
Languages of schooling
At the third Council of Europe Summit, the heads of state and government defined a number of priorities, inclusion and social cohesion being among them. With a view to realising them, the Language Policy Unit launched a project on languages of schooling in 2006.
In fact, a poor command of the main language of learning/teaching used in the classroom creates problems for too many schoolchildren. International research (including PISA) has repeatedly shown that reading difficulties have serious effects on school performance. This research highlights the difference between the use of languages for interpersonal communication and for more “academic” purposes, in reading, writing and even oral communication. This “academic” language is learned at school; it needs to be taught on the basis of clearly defined objectives, including the knowledge and skills required in the language(s) of schooling to study all school subjects.
On the basis of experience gained with foreign language competence descriptors, and in the light of the educational aims spelt out in curricula, the project sets out to help curriculum developers (in all school subjects) to describe the competences in the language(s) of schooling needed knowledge building.
With this end in view, the Language Policy Unit has published documents detailing approaches and reference points to help curriculum developers in general, and particularly those responsible for history, mathematics, science and literature, with this task of competence description. This is done separately for each language, since languages of schooling are deeply rooted in national, and indeed regional or local, education cultures. The project accordingly makes no attempt to produce language of schooling descriptors at European level.
Descriptors produced at national or regional level are published on the LPU’s Platform of resources and references for plurilingual and intercultural education, with a view to the pooling of experience and expertise.
In this area, too, the LPU provides expert guidance for member states requesting it.
Plurilingual and intercultural education
When they start school, children and adolescents already have knowledge and skills which are always encoded in one or more languages. To promote equity in education, and also build on this diversity, the Language Policy Unit emphasises the concepts of plurilingual and intercultural competences in a Guide for the Development and Implementation of Curricula for Plurilingual and Intercultural Education. This Guide expands on objectives already central to the CEFR and the Guide for the Development of Language Education Policies in Europe.
A network of curriculum developers appointed by the national delegates to the Steering Committee for Education (for 32 countries1) was established in 2011. Co-operation is based on seminars organised at European and, on request, national or regional level. Experience and materials are also shared via the Platform of resources and references for plurilingual and intercultural education.
Curriculum revision geared to this very broad concept of plurilingual and intercultural education can also rely on the LPU’s expertise and lead to Language education policy profiles for specific countries or regions. Between 2003 and 2011, 15 such profiles – language education policies as a whole - were prepared and published for various states, as well as regions and towns.
N.B. When they feature on official curricula, regional and minority languages, and also migrants’ languages, have the status of foreign/second languages or languages of schooling. Linkage with other languages on the curriculum is covered by the Guide for the Development and Implementation of Curricula for Plurilingual and Intercultural Education. Indeed, learners and their plurilingual and intercultural repertoires are central to all the LPU’s projects.
Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters (AIE)
The AIE is a tool for self-analysis and evaluation that can be used by individuals (either independently or with guidance and help from a ‘facilitator – teacher, youth worker etc) to describe and analyse a particularly significant encounter with an ‘other’ – someone from a different ethnic, religious, language, social, cultural etc group. The analysis is guided by a series of questions – created from a theory of intercultural competence and social action – which take the user through the chosen experience and, as the self-analysis is carried out, encourage the user to evaluate their response to the encounter and consider how they will act as a consequence in the future. The AIE was published on-line in 2009 and a first teacher-training seminar on the AIE was held in Sofia (Bulgaria) in 2010. An Italian language version was kindly made by the Direzione Generale per gli Affari Internazionali e dell’Ufficio Scolastico Regionale per la Lombardia del Ministero dell’Istruzione, dell’Università e della Ricerca and added to the website in October 2010.
II. Linguistic integration of adult migrants (LIAM)
The Council of Europe has been working on migration-related issues since 1968. In that time, it has affirmed the importance of education for migrants in over 25 recommendations, resolutions or conventions [see the Compilation of extracts]. Increasingly, member states are now making the acquisition of citizenship or the right to residence – and sometimes the right to enter the country (family reunion) - conditional on the applicant’s acquiring a certain level of competence in the national or official language.
Language is a central aspect of the many issues raised by migration, and particularly integration and maintenance of social cohesion. Indeed, access to education for migrants is particularly important (see the European Convention on the Legal Status of Migrant Workers).
The acquisition and evaluation of communication competences in the host country’s language(s) play a basic part in responding to challenges raised by migration and the integration of migrants in the host community. However, integration must not be made conditional on language competences, although these are an important part of it.
This was the context in which the LIAM project was launched, the aim being to give member states the means of satisfying their requirements in the matter of language teaching provision and assessment, while upholding their shared values (e.g. equity, transparency and respect for human rights).
As part of the project, two surveys were carried out in the member states, and the findings reported at intergovernmental conferences; these made it possible to assess needs, and indicated ways in which the Council of Europe could help to meet them.
Co-organised with another Council of Europe sector (responsible for migration), the surveys also showed that language teaching and evaluation for migrants are not always dealt with by ministries of education – a point which needs to be considered.
Finally, there is a trend towards increased use of the “levels” of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), although this tool was designed for foreign languages, and its potential is certainly not limited to levels. It is essential that it be adapted to meet the special needs of migrants (for more details, see the discussion paper for the CDPPE and the website); almost inevitably, this involves making a distinction between aims for oral and written skills (tantamount to defining “profiles” with different levels for different areas – reading, writing, speaking, etc.).
Targeted guidelines and instruments have accordingly been prepared and made available to member states, and ongoing contacts have been maintained, with a view to close monitoring of changing needs, and action to meet them. The next survey will be carried out in mid-2012, with a report in 2013.

PROGRESS REPORT FOR 2011
I. Languages in formal education systems
-
Activity 1: Foreign languages
Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR):
– publication of the French version of the Manual for relating Language Examinations to the CEFR; the new Manual for Language Test Development and Examining is currently being translated; participation in conferences (Expolangues, Paris, February 2011, European Centre for the Regions, Bilbao, October 2011), publication of articles and studies on the CEFR’s impact on education practice and policy at world level;

– bilateral co-operation: help for Armenia (2011) and the Slovak Republic (2012) with reviewing their foreign language curricula
European Language Portfolio (ELP) www.coe.int/portfolio
The new procedure for registering ELPs was tested in the spring. The ELP website was completely redesigned to accommodate registration as well as provide new resources and templates for developing ELP models and support tools for implementation of the ELP. It also offers access to resources and results linked to projects implemented by the European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML). The new site was opened on 26 September 2011, 10th anniversary of the European Day of Languages. To date four ELP models have been registered and two more are under way.
-
Activity 2: Languages of schooling
– publication of procedures for the description of competences in the language of schooling necessary for teaching/learning mathematics and literature (supplementing those already available for history and science);
– publication of a number of language of schooling descriptors provided by member states;
– attendance at national (Spain, Italy, Norway) or university (Germany, Luxembourg) events concerned with languages of schooling;
– meeting of experts (September 2011); preparatory seminar in September 2012 for an intergovernmental conference in 2013.
-
Activity 3: Plurilingual and intercultural education
– establishment of a European network of curriculum developers for plurilingual and intercultural education;
– seminar on “curriculum convergences for plurilingual and intercultural education” in November 2011, with 10 member states of the network; report published and case studies in preparation: the second seminar will be held on 10–11 May 2012, a third in the second half of 2012, and a network meeting in 2013
– translation of the Guide for the Development of Curricula for Plurilingual and Intercultural Education for Bosnia and Herzegovina by the OSCE; translation into Italian
– publication of the “Language Education Policy Profile: Ukraine” (self-evaluation with the help of a Council of Europe group of experts).
-
Activity 4: Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters (AIE)
A second seminar for teacher trainers on use of the AIE in the classroom was held at the European Youth Centre, Strasbourg, from 15-17 June 2011. The 17 participants from 15 countries, including Egypt and Jordan, developed modules for using the AIE and undertook to conduct a number of training sessions in their respective countries by the end of the year. This seminar was organised in co-operation with the Unit for capacity building, mobility and exchanges (Intercultural Education and Exchanges project).
A draft of a companion volume to the AIE - Images of Others, an Autobiography of Intercultural Encounters through Visual Media – was completed and piloted between October 2011 and March 2012. On-line publication of the final version is planned for autumn 2012.
-
Activity 5: European Day of Languages (www.coe.int/EDL):
The Council of Europe and the European Commission issued a joint press release to mark the Day’s 10th anniversary. In close co-operation with the European Centre for Modern Languages (ECML), member states were given substantial support, particularly in the form of promotional material. In Strasbourg, the anniversary was marked by a meeting on the contribution of sign languages to language diversity.
II. Linguistic integration of adult migrants
On the basis of the two surveys (2008 and 2010) carried out in Council of Europe member states, a Report on a survey on language requirements for adult migrants was prepared and published. This considers trends connected with arrival in the host country, residence rights and citizenship, and reviews related training and evaluation systems.
New instruments to help member states to devise and implement policies and practices conducive to successful integration include: i) guidelines on adapting the Common European Framework for Languages (CEFR) to meet the needs of adult migrants; ii) a questionnaire which providers of language courses for migrants can use to assess their own performance; iii) a European Language Portfolio for adult migrants, accompanied by a handbook and checklists; iv) a draft study on learning the host country’s language for vocational purposes.
The “Migrants” section of the LPU website has been redesigned to make consultation and information retrieval easier. A web portal geared to the needs of providers of training and assessment for adult migrants has been outlined to make consultation more modular, and tackle the various issues linked with linguistic integration of migrants in greater depth. This portal will be launched at the end of 2012. At international level, co-operation with the European Commission (participation in two conferences) has continued, and the LPU has contributed to several regional initiatives.
