Why do Schools apply to the ASP net?
We all want to contribute to the great challenge of changing the culture of war and violence to a culture of peace and democracy through education. We really care about problems worldwide and the role of UNESCO.
- We care about human rights and democracy.
- We are deeply interested in intercultural learning.
- We are very much concerned about our environment.
Every year we make our annual report of all our work done and we set new compromises for the coming year. We rely on four pillars of learning to work in Education:
- Learning to know.
- Learning to do.
- Learning to be.
- Learning to live together.
In the development of our Class of Values our students get involved in systematic projects to promote shared responsibility and interdependence.
As a member of ASP net we have become a community in which we are all: Parents, Teachers, School Staff and Students very much conscious of our social compromise.
