About the project

ESC: More than just a school

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The school was created and is run by parents and teachers who wanted to introduce alternative methods to education. It focuses on working with kids also with unusual needs, e.g. with diseases such as children's sight impairment and other health problems. The school strives to create unique conditions for learning and development: close relationships, innovative alternative teaching methods are our motto. It is a small institution (160 students) for children from the 1st to the 8th grade (6-15 years), where we work on relationships between younger and older children, children and teachers, as well as a triangle of relationships between teachers, children and parents.
