Education in Belgium is regulated and for the larger part financed by one of the three communities: Flemish, French and German-speaking. All three communities have a unified school system with small differences from one community to another. The federal government plays a very small role: it decides directly the age for mandatory schooling and indirectly the financing of the communities. The schools can be divided in three groups ((オランダ語:netten); (フランス語:réseaux)): # Schools owned by the communities (''GO! Onderwijs van de Vlaamse gemeenschap''; ''réseau de la Communauté française'') # Subsidized public schools (''officieel gesubsidieerd onderwijs''; ''réseau officiel subventionné''), organized by provinces and municipalities # Subsidized free schools (''vrij gesubsidieerd onderwijs''; ''réseau libre subventionné''), mainly organized by an organization affiliated to the Catholic church The latter is the largest group, both in number of schools and in number of pupils. Education in Belgium is compulsory between the ages of 6 and 18 or until one graduates from secondary school.〔(Dutch) (Leerplicht )〕 ==History== In the past there were conflicts between state schools and Catholic schools, and disputes whether the latter should be funded by the government (see first and second School Wars). The 1958 School Pact was an agreement of the three large political parties to end these conflicts. The 1981 state reform transferred some matters from the federal Belgian level to the communities. In 1988, the majority of educational matters was transferred. Nowadays, very few general matters are regulated on a national level. The current ministries for education are the Flemish Government, the Government of the French Community and the Government of the German-speaking Community for each community respectively. Brussels, being bilingual French-Dutch, has both schools provided by the Flemish and French-speaking community. Municipalities with language facilities often have schools of two communities (Dutch-French or German-French) as well. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Education in Belgium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
