Students of different nationalities, Turks, Syrians, Jews, Israelis, Roma, have come to our school for the last couple of years. Another part of our students are children of single parent families or orphans who are raised by their relatives. The insufficient parental control and the lack of effective ways to deal with the problems set before us the responsibility to search for new working forms and methods to make school a desirable and safe place for our students. Facing the need to improve our professional and personal competences, we have planned to visit an international training course in Finland which will give us the opportunity to get acquainted with and observe one of the most successful educational systems in Europe.The main objective of the project is to learn about one of the most successful educational systems in Europe and the implementation of its effective and working practices in the Bulgarian Educational System. Our specific objectives are the following: to improve the professional training and competences of the teachers; to increase students’ motivation, cognitive activity, thinking and creativity; to provide a supportive and respecting differences environment, where each student will have the opportunity for self-expression and to defend his/her personal opinion; to implement new management models and effective partnership between the school management, teachers, parents, social and cultural institutions.Four participants from our organization will take part in this mobility – the director of the school, the pedagogical adviser and two English teachers – one from primary and one from secondary level.
