Promoting STEM education in schools - EU Report

This report examines how science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education is promoted across European school systems and identifies key challenges, policy responses, good practice examples and opportunities for systemic improvement. Drawing on extensive desk research, 265 stakeholder interviews, thematic focus groups, analysis of Erasmus+ and other EU actions, and comparative analysis across all EU Member States alongside selected non-EU countries, the study provides a comprehensive overview of national- and EU-level STEM education policies and practices.

Here are some key ECEC focused findings from the report:

🎯 'We must move beyond short-term, project-based initiatives and embed STEM across entire education systems – from early childhood to vocational education and training'.

🎯 'While early childhood education and care (ECEC) is gradually becoming universal in many countries, integrated STEM curricula at this stage are rare or not explicitly referenced'.

🎯 'A coherent and continuous approach to STEM education, from early childhood and through primary and secondary education, is increasingly recognised as essential for fostering sustained interest, confidence and competence in STEM subjects'.
