Diversity – Inclusion issues
School has various national and ethnic minorities attending and is bilingual Serbian/Rusyn (Eastern Ukranian language). There also 13% of Roma students and there are also adult learners. School also has a certain number of students with special educational needs who are slowly being included into regular classes. Being a rural, multicultural municipality, there is the issue of poverty and accessibility to school.
Level of inclusive practices/experience
School management and staff is well trained and they have been very active in the processes of inclusion of Roma and adult learners. There is very high motivation, openness to training and exchanges and networking with other schools. This is definitively one of the positive examples in inclusive approaches in the rural areas.
