My dad told me about something that is happening in Austria. It is from a newspaper called Kurier. Here is the translation of the article into English: http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_url?trurl=http%3A%2F%2Fkurier.at%2Fkarrieren%2Funi%2F2068513.php&lp=de_en&.intl=us&fr=yfp-t-701
Austria is making some big changes in regards to how it's school systems run. It had something called Hauptschule - which was a higher up high school and now it will be replaced with a middle school in order to give all students an equal education.
Also, the training for teachers at pedagogical academies and universities will be unified - meaning, they will all receive the same type of training. It was different in the past.
This is quite a substantial change for Austria and it will take some getting used to for students and teachers a like.
