Hungary's national education targets under the EU's 'Europe 2020' strategy will be difficult for the country to meet. While the higher education aim may be achievable, its proposed early school leavers' goal is "not realistic," according to the Ministry of Education. EurActiv Hungary reports from Budapest.
Regarding education, the European Commission proposed cutting the early school leavers rate to below 10% from the current 15% and ensuring that at least 40% of youngsters have a degree or diploma.
''The Ministry [for National Resources] takes on the challenges of the EU target,'' an official in the office of Rózsa Hoffmann, state secretary for education, told EurActiv Hungary when asked about the early school leavers' target.
