Literacy for a better future
Things are heating up! Our pilot project for cross-poly literacy courses is entering the final stage – and has already achieved a lot!
As part of the project Lernhilfe our cross-poly literacy courses run in the summer semester of the current school year (March-June 2024), taking place twice a week in the afternoon at two school locations. 32 students take part in the courses until June 27th.
The aim of the courses is to promote the reading and writing skills of the participants and thus support them in achieving their educational goals.
We are pleased with the great progress made by our participants and are excited about the further development of the project!
