09 28 Outstanding educational opportunities at all levels Initial situation The population of the City of Zurich is well educated. About 40 percent of adults in Zurich have higher education qualifications, considerably more than in the surrounding areas. This percentage is even higher among the younger generations and new arrivals. The basis for the high level of education is created, on the one hand, by the elementary school. Although the responsibility for this lies with the canton, concrete models can be considerably influenced by the City. On the other hand, the dual education system with a high permeability between vocational training and universities makes a considerable contribution to the level of education. The City itself also offers a wide range of further education, which is chosen by many. Rising expectations in the course of social pluralism confront the elementary school with great challenges, however. The timely provision of school buildings, which meet today's requirements demands a large allocation of financial resources from the City. <strong>Strategies</strong> � The City supports educational institutions by providing good framework conditions. � The City is committed to increasing the attractiveness of the teaching profession because elementary schools fulfil an important and fundamental social function. � The City aims to achieve equal opportunity by offering a variety of educational programmes at all levels, promotes forward-looking school models, encourages poorly educated population groups and supports outstanding talent. � The City expands the range of daily structures available within the school environment according to perceived needs where this can be justified financially. � The City expands early education possibilities in order to guarantee favourable starting conditions for all children.
