As well involving into the European schools network had to be achieved by even creating the possibility to communicate with colleagues from other European countries and strengthening intercultural communication skills. . We were gaining to be introduced with experiences in providing inclusive education in different contexts and backgrounds.

Due to globality all over the world students of our Gymnasium represent different nationalities,so, we needed expanding our soft skills such as tolerance, knowledge about other cultures as well as getting new experinces with other nations' representatives. Possibility to improve foreign language skills was very important for us as well.

We analysed the necessities of our school's community (including teaching and non-teaching staff, students, parents) Understanding that in addition with the understanding of the necessity of collaboration with schools in Europe, creating networking. It inspired us to look for the solution of the problem.
