“Flynn presents three interrelated strategies to firmly embed plurilingual education in the lives of children and young people—strategies that embrace curriculum design, delivery, and certification in coherent ways.”

^{Secretary-General of the European Schools, Brussels, Belgium}

“I warmly welcome and wholeheartedly endorse this book as a valuable contribution to this important field of education. Grounded in the principles of the Barcelona Summit Agreement, this volume offers readers a thoughtful overview of current practices, future opportunities, and the challenges that policymakers, school leaders, and—last but not least—students face today.”

^{University of Edinburgh, UK}

“This timely volume introduces innovative strategies to foster plurilingual students, advance CLIL, and revitalise minority languages… A must-read.”

^{PhD, Honorary Professor, University of Sydney, Australia}

“This book presents a significant innovation in foreign language education… While based on the Irish context, the model is relevant wherever schools seek to develop students with communicative competence in foreign languages.”

^{University of Vienna, Austria}

“Curriculum writers, policy makers and language educators ought to take note of the MFL-education policy concept presented in this book, based on the author’s empirical research and considerable experience as an MFL teacher and school director.”
