Background

We have been striving for Jesenice Secondary School to be an educational institution of high quality. We wish to build on good theroteical knowledge and practical competencies by gaining experience with added value and by encouraging independence and research of students and school staff. Internatrional cooperation brings all these qualities together. Therefore, we have been participating actively in the Erasmus+ programmes in recent years. International mobilities bring additional possibilities of connection and cooperation within school and with school's partners in the local environment. Our school can improve the quality of work and remain recognizable as a high quality technical and vocational school. Finally, international mobilities open doors to new forms of project work with other educational insitutions in Slovenia and abroad.
