   The *general* rule is:
   Englisch is the first foreign language. Now we have in NRW even

The school I visited offered English or Latin as a first language.
They still did so two years ago. Of course that *might* have changed
during the last two years, but I see no reason for that. And I know
other schools, at least bigger ones, offer a similar choice.

As far as I know, no law or regulation in any part of Germany
prescribes that everyone has to learn English. Correct me if
I am wrong.
