I've noticed that Westerners from larger countries, and from English speaking countries in particular, always struggle with grasping that in some and perhaps many places, people just speak a handful of languages. I am from a small European country, and I was also raised and schooled in four, and on top come electives and classics if you are so inclined.

The impression what is commonly spoken is very much biased by this assumption. Many just don't speak one language all day long.

Where from? I am not aware of any country that uses more than two languages in school (except for foreign language classes of course)

[cobbaut]

Belgium also, Dutch-French-German and English.

[occamrazor]

Where in Belgium? Only in the small German-speaking region or also elsewhere?

I had 3 languages in my Indian school

[unmole]

India officially follows a three language policy in schools.

Gonna guess Luxembourg.

[occamrazor]

Luxembourg has two (French and German), and English as a foreign language.

[simongray]

Also Luxembourgish, so three + English.

AFAIK Luxembourgish is used only in Kindergarten, not in higher school grades.
