Abstract
Education, in its various ramifications of higher education, vocational education and training (VET), school education, and even pre-primary education, has been a classic case of a policy area regarded as ‘sensitive’ at the European level (Olsen 2002; Trondal 2002). It conforms to the generalisation that where treaty powers are weak, Member States have been reticent about taking action (Sabel and Zeitlin 2008).
