Cooperation with parents is at a good level. We strive to involve parents in school life in problem solving and prevention of drug and narcotic substance use, reducing student aggression, absenteeism prevention, school escape and anti-social behavior.

The teaching staff responsibly upholds their professional commitments.

The team has accumulated experience in working on European projects. Evidence of this is the successful implementation of student mobility projects on Lifelong Learning Program – Leonardo da Vinci Sector Program and on Erasmus + Program, K-1  – Practice Mobility and K- 2 – Strategic partnerships.
