✦ What this vote decides· AI summary
Parliament set out its position on the pilot project on European Schools Alliances and what it should contribute to citizenship education, democratic competences and European values. Parliament adopted the text as its official position, meaning it now formally states what it wants the Commission to do with the pilot project. It asks the Commission to keep citizenship education politically pluralistic, to respect parents' rights over their children's upbringing, and to limit student exchanges to the 27 member states plus Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. It also calls for solid subject knowledge, mathematics, science, technology and engineering, classical languages and Europe's cultural heritage to be central, and for new structures to show clear added value over existing Erasmus+ instruments.

One day of voting in plenary. Each subject is a report, resolution, agreement or objection; they are grouped by kind of decision, and each group says what “adopted” means there.
The ballots
Members vote on amendments and on parts of the text first, then on the text as a whole. That final, decisive vote is the result shown at the top of each subject.
Who voted how
Only roll-call votes record each Member’s vote — open one for every name and the breakdown by group. A show of hands records the outcome only.
Document & procedure
Each subject rests on a document (a committee report, a motion, a Council or Commission text) and belongs to a procedure, the whole file that can span years.
