The article presents the possibility of using the concept of a common core of language proficiency in developing the argumentative skills of the bilingual students of European Schools – an institution comprising a network of educational centres operating in the European Union, which provide multilingual and multicultural pre-school, primary and secondary education. In the study, conducted with the desk research method, the author analysed curriculum documents constituting the basis for the work of native and foreign language teachers in European Schools. The research shows that the curricula for different languages provide for similar general competences, but differ in terms of the philosophy of language education and the emphasis placed on particular content and teaching methods. This opens up the possibility of collaboration between teachers, who can increase the effectiveness of their work by building on skills common to all languages.
