Background

ZSEiI has been cooperating with European countries for 20 years. The successive programmes and projects we have implemented have brought many benefits to the school. That is why we apply for new funds for new projects every year. Professional mobility for students is a priority for us. We are convinced that a school of such a high standard as ours should provide opportunities for students to gain additional skills, qualifications and certificates that will allow our students to enter the Polish and European labour market freely, and to continue their studies at higher education institutions in the country and beyond. That is why we cooperate with the labour market, usually locally, but we try to go beyond the area of Silesia and Zagłębie to broaden the students' training opportunities. We educate young people who are aware of their own skills, who are broad-minded, who speak foreign languages (mainly English) fluently, who are open and friendly, and who are ready to take on new challenges Students go on mobility trips under the supervision of teachers. The opportunity to observe the work of teaching staff in other countries is not insignificant. We try to transfer good practices to our school Each project produces concrete results
