Basque Education Department to tackle language model reform

The Basque Education system is facing one of its most important challenges: the 
reform of the current language models. 

The Education councillor of the Basque Government, Tontxu Campos, suggested to 
substitute the current models (A, education in Spanish with Basque language as 
a single subject; B, some subjects in Spanish and some others in Basque; and D, 
education in Basque), for a "framework of multilingual learning and teaching" 
in which Basque is the main driving language and centres have the freedom to 
design their own projects.
