    The Primary School in Fanianowo is a public school with 115 pupils and 20 people of staff. Students start their Primary school at the age of seven and they will finish it when they turn 15. Our School is the only educational and cultural center for children in the local community . The school is located, in a disadvantaged area, an agro-tourist region of north-western Poland with a high unemployment rate.

    The classes are varied with children comming from different social background .There are also few students with hyperactivity, dyslexia and other special needs and support units from primary to lower secondary level students. The education of children is focused on learning European key competences. In order to meet expectations of the local community and educational needs of children, we have very extensive educational offer. Children are taught two languages (English and German).
    The school’s priority is to promote the education and social success of our pupils’ through the development of different level of responses (regular education, music and artistic education, alternative curriculum courses, ecological education and professional courses/workshop, early childhood intervention (with 3-5 year-old children with special needs).  We are looking for alternative forms of leisure for our students. We try to involve them in various school, national and international projects.
    We would like our students to be conscious members of human society. We teach them to respect, not only the culture and traditions of the Polish nation. We want them to be open to other people, to respect individuality and diversity and help them collaborate with people from different counties. These attitudes are extremely important for the European citizen in times of economic migration and the necessity of living in a culturally diverse society. We are considered as inclusive school with significant experiences that will be important to share with other European partners, the same way we need to learn from other experiences and from other contexts. This way we can improve the quality of practices once this experience allow our staff to observe and reflect on other professionals practices, in different contexts, adopting new ideas, envisaging both other solutions and innovative educational methodologies.

    We are a modern school. New technologies and innovative methodology in teaching are our strength.
