Aargau: Education
"To study is to develop as a person. To research is to shape the future."
Throughout its existence, the Canton has attributed great importance to education. Thus it pioneered an important change that influenced the entire Swiss educational system: two centuries ago, the Canton became the first to establish a grammar school with lay teachers. Educational reform has been high on the Canton's political agenda for some years now. Two factors remain key: adapting the curriculum to meet changing skills requirements and encouraging individuals to improve their skills.
