Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal authorities had to examine and grant an individual exemption from the school-entry age rule.
Decisione estratta
Article 4(2) CSR leaves exemptions to cantonal competence but does not oblige cantons to create an exemption regime; Geneva could enforce the age cutoff strictly.
Motivazione estratta
The concordat text merely states that individual derogations remain within cantonal competence. This confirms autonomy, it does not create a subjective right to a derogation or a duty to provide one.
