Dear Parents,
As you are well aware, the Federal Government of Germany has not yet complied with its legal obligations with regard to the extension of the European School Frankfurt. We believe that the German government is delaying the decision until it is too late to implement the obvious solutions.
We have informed you in more detail in our message dated December 20, 2013, which you can also read on our website
In that message we have also announced that the Parents' Association will organise a petition in January. This petition is now online. We invite you all to visit our website to enter your name and support our cause.
There is a page for Parents' Association members
And a page for the employees of European institutions (ie staff including ECB that do not have children at the school, parents who are not members of the ESF Parents Association) and other persons who would like to support us
We hope that this measure will help to support our cause and speed up the decision making process in Berlin.
Your Parent Association

Dear Parents,
As you are well aware, the Federal Government of Germany has not yet complied with its legal obligations with regard to the extension of the European School Frankfurt. We believe that the German government is deliberately delaying the decision until it is too late to implement the obvious solutions.
The management of the ESF and the City of Frankfurt have proposed an interim solution, as the implementation of a permanent solution would be impossible before the influx of SSM staff and families to Frankfurt. Rather than agreeing to finance the interim solution, the German Ministry of Education is still pondering other options.
