We work actively with different international activities in the school. Young people of today have more mobility in their lives, regarding their studies and work, and so will be able to consider the whole world as their place of work in the future. By making contact with people from other countries and cultures during their time in school, their ability to adapt to new conditions and environments increases. Therefore we offer our students a lot of opportunities to participate in our different international activities.
