School with classes I-VIII I-VIII UNIREA, structure VALEA CÂNEPII








OUR SCHOOL

The school is situated in the countryside, 25 km from the city of Braila, in southeastern Romania.Valea Canepii City is a deprived area, only about 10% of parents are employed. There are 144 students enrolled, 36% of them are Roma, over 6% have special educational needs. Students come mainly from families with large financial problems, the only source of maintenance grants and aid are offered by the Romanian state. Therefore, particularly in the autumn, students, in particular Roma, go to work in agriculture to provide daily life.

Therefore, the school has an important role in the community. Teachers in recent years are concerned with access to support student projects.
