As an active participant in Erasmus+ programs, our school welcomes opportunities for job shadowing and knowledge exchange. Visiting educators gain practical experience with our innovative teaching methods and therapeutic approaches. Contact us (details below) if you’re interested in collaboration.
In addition to our special education teachers, our school boasts a dedicated team that includes a psychologist, a social worker, an occupational therapist, a speech therapist, and a school nurse. We also offer specialized teaching in music, IT, arts and physical education. All these positions, including the administrative role of the principal, are available for enriching job shadowing experiences.

Please keep in mind that this is a Special Elementary School. Our students, aged 6 to 15, face various challenges, including intellectual disabilities, developmental disorders, and motor and sensory impairments. Classes consist of no more than 5 students each. As such, our daily curriculum significantly differs from that of a general elementary school. When applying for a job shadowing placement, it is essential to engage with special education practices. Ideally, a working week of five days is recommended for an optimal experience.
