15 Jahren mit Minderleistungen in Lesen, Mathematik und Naturwissenschaften.
Außerdem soll bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt das Ungleichgewicht zwischen Jungen und
Mädchen bei den Abschlüssen in Mathematik, Naturwissenschaften und
technologischen Fächern um die Hälfte verbessert werden. (Die Konferenz der
Europäischen Erziehungsminister hat in Thessaloniki 2003 auf das realistischere
Maß von 20% reduziert.) Zwei weitere Ziele betreffen die Hochschulabschlüsse der
Bevölkerung zwischen 25 und bis zu 59 Jahren; 80% oder mehr sollten eine höhere
Schulausbildung erreicht haben. Kongruent dazu soll die Beteiligung an Prozessen
des lebenslangen Lernens der Altersgruppe zwischen 25 bis 64 Jahre nicht unter

European Commission proposals 5 European benchmarks for education and training systems in Europe,
Brussels, 20 November 2002, IP /02 / 1710:
"Responding to the challenges set by the Lisbon European Council of making Europe, by 2010, the
most competitive and dynamic knowledge based economy in the world, the European Commission and
the member states are working on the definition and implementation of joint objectives for education
and training systems.
1. By 2010, all member states should have at least halve the rate of early school leavers, in reference
to the rate recorded in the year 200o, in order to achieve an EU-average rate of 9% or less. ....
The current EU-average is of 19%, whereas the 3 best performing EU countries (Sweden, Finland
and Austria) show an average of 10,3%. The rate is currently of 45% in Portugal, 29% in Spain
and 26% in Italy.
2. By 2010, all member states will have at least halved the level of gender imbalance among
graduates in mathematics, science and technology, whilst securing an overall significant increase
of the total number of graduates compared to the year 2000. ....
3. By 2010, member states should ensure that the average percentage of 25- 59 years olds in the EU
with at least upper secondary education reaches 80% or more. ... Currently, the 3 best performing
EU countries (Germany, Denmark, and Sweden) show an average of 83%, whereas Portugal has
an average of 21%, Spain of 42% and Italy of 46%.
4. By 2010, the percentage of low-achieving 15 year olds in reading, mathematical and scientific
literacy will be least halved in each member state. Much remains to be done to improve
performances and raise the quality of education and training in Europe overall to the levels of the
best in the world (Japan, Finland). A far too high level of very low performers is present in our
schools, with consequences in terms of employment, social inclusion, personal development and
subsequent learning. Special efforts should be made at least to halve their numbers by 2010.
According to the recent PISA study from the OECD, current attainment levels in reading literacy
(15-year olds) score 498 in the EU, 504 in the USA and 522 in Japan. The average of the 3 best
performing EU member states (Finland, Ireland and the United Kingdom) is of 535.
5. By 2010, the EU-average level of participation in lifelong learning should be at least 15% of the
adult working age population (25 -64 age group) and in no country should it be lower than 10%.
....The current EU-average is of 8,4% (meaning that for any period of a month, 8,4% people will
have participated in education and training activities), with an average of 19,6% for the 3 best
performing member states (the United Kingdom, Finland and Denmark)."
