    • develop autonomy and responsibility;

    • to teach a variety of subjects in order to understand different aspects of reality;

    • support the pupil in his/her growth through a mutual collaboration with the families;

    • create closer relations with local authorities, associations, voluntary organizations and cultural institutes;

    • strengthen the spirit of European citizenship while enhancing the cultural heritage and the specific identity of belonging.
