Abstract
This academic essay analyses the behaviour of the European Union as a subject in the Community of Madrid ́s educational curriculum, emphasizing the importance of educating European students on the ethical, historical and socio- economic dimensions of the Union. It also addresses and elaborates on the performance and evolution of education in the EU, from an identity point of view, for the upbringing of conscious European citizens.
Methodologically, it delves into the obstacles and challenges the EU faces, such as Euroscepticism and the defence of national sovereignties from some member states, within a complex environment and not exempt from threats, which go beyond the educational field.
The need for quality education and permanent training for teachers is emphasized, as well as fostering students’ active participation in learning about the EU, which enables them to be more active within the Union and to better understand its everyday reality.
As a result, is highlighted the positive impact on Madrid ́s education system, which is developing the necessary tools in order to become a reference on this educational subject in Europe.
