Education
The German education system functions upon the rules and regulations of the Basic Law "Grundgesetz"(in English meaning constitution). The Federal Ministries of Education, Cultural Affair and Science is the main authority for making education, science and arts policy guidelines, and for adopting related laws and administrative regulations. The ministry closely collaborates with the Federation and Landers (German states) authorities, in supervising the entire activity of the educational institutions, organizations and foundations. Responsibility on education issues in Germany is shared amongst Landers and the Federation (which has a minor role). Though, there are areas of cooperation in the education field for which such a distinction between both parts doesn't exist, known as "joint tasks" or "Gemeinschaftsaufgaben". Landers, on the other hand, have a wide legislative power around their territory about school, academic, adult and continuing sector (except if the Basic law empowers the Federation with such a power instead).
