Peer counselling on modernising the Polish curriculum to enhance key competences

This report presents policy advice and reflections resulting from a peer counselling process in Poland co-organised by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture, the Polish Ministry of Education and the Educational Research Institute – National Research Institute (IBE PIB), Poland. Peer counselling is part of the mutual learning toolbox of the European Education Area strategic framework until 2030 (1 ), providing evidence-based support for education policy development. It brings together peers from national administrations and independent experts to advise an EU Member State in a process of reform, based on experiences from their own national contexts and available research evidence. Their recommendations are intended to inform the design and implementation of policy solutions for the Member State. The impact of the process and implementation of the recommendations remains the full responsibility of the Member State that initiated the peer counselling.
