Description
The economic and trade school Brežice has faced a decline in number of students. The school is therefore forced to improve the open part of the curriculum and increase cooperation with the local community. The number of students has fallen with 50% in the last five years. The reasons are that there is more interests for general education among teenagers, a decline of number of students, and more interesting education programs in other regions, among others. Through the project and the cooperation with Ås Upper Secondary School, teachers will observe good practice abroad and gain new ideas. They will learn and obtain a more rich business vocabulary through workshops and lectures and have a chance to observe the application of these in classroom. This can serve as a model for the schools' future work. At the same time they will learn about Ås school’s management and organisation, the co-operation between schools and companies, the motivation of students, using new ICT technology in classroom and project work among teachers. Through this project we hope to establish a basis for future cooperation between the two institutions, and to obtain a flow of knowledge and mobility of people as well as ideas.
