When the project began, the school assumed that, through educational mobilities and accompanying activities, it would achieve the goals set in the concept design phase, responding to diagnosed educational needs and challenges. The school's priority was to increase the level of students' knowledge and skills, in line with the curriculum requirements, and to develop key competences, including social and civic skills, language competences, teamwork, cultural awareness, the ability to acquire and process information, and digital competences. The school, striving to provide equal educational opportunities and support for people in a more difficult situation, also intended to promote the integration of these people. The project aimed to strengthen the European dimension of education by developing existing activities within international cooperation and expanding the network to new countries and partner institutions. Additionally, it was expected that the project would contribute to increasing the potential of teaching and management staff, as well as improve the effectiveness of management and coordination of European educational projects.
