Abstract	A General Plan for Education in the Federal Republic of Germany was adopted in 1973. Priority areas for development in the plan are vocational education, counseling services, scholarships for secondary and university students, special education programs, and an improvement in the pupil/teacher ratio on the primary level. Developments in the field of education from 1974-76 are reviewed and integrated into a discussion of a phased five-year educational plan for 1973-78. Of paramount importance in this Five Year Plan is an expansion of the financial base to provide equal educational opportunities for an ever-increasing number of secondary and university students. Uniform requirements for the secondary school graduation examination (Arbitur) have been established in biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, German, English, French, Latin, Greek, civics, art, music, theology, and physical education. A Higher Education Framework Act was passed in 1976 to govern general reorganization of higher education, curriculum, admission requirements, examinations, and staff categories. The main objective of the act is to coordinate activities of universities, teacher training institutes, art academies, and specialized institutes. The main developments in educational research during the period under review have been research accompanied school and model experiments in all subjects financed jointly by the Federal and regional governments and research to establish national testing norms.
