Background

Erasmus+ activities are already an strategically important area of our school and constantly bring sustainable added value. Currently the school is implementing several projects, the main feature of which is systemic linking of students´ internships with the teachers´educational mobility, based on the development of personal competences, as the ability to communicate in a foreign language and use this when teaching professional subjects. The Erasmus+ activities, as they put the accent on being active, play an important role in supporting the realization of new vision -"A School that Connects". Our school wants to connect theoretical knowledge of our students with practical tasks and dares to send the students to explore the European labour market. Every year we find new partner organizations to get good internships for all students. The biggest motivation to keep applying for such a project is seeing happy and excited faces of our students, who return from their work experience abroad. We are proud of their achievements, we watch them mature and make progress in their personal development. This work experience from abroad is also appreciated by our partner companies and contributes to better employability on the labour market.
