Our school is currently hosting two teachers from a vocational high school in Sintra, Portugal, who are completing a job shadowing programme. Their stay in Thessaloniki has been arranged in cooperation with the Education Advisor, Mr. Petros Tzintzos.
At the beginning of their programme, our colleagues Ms Katerina Apostolidou and Ms. Tina Bengli presented the structure and goals of vocational education in Greek schools. With the approval of the Director of the Vocational Training Center, Mr. Giorgos Christakakis, the teachers then observed activities in our school workshops.
The Portuguese teachers expressed great enthusiasm for the warm welcome and cooperation shown by the students of classes Γ-ΚΟΜ, Γ-ΑΙΣΘ, Γ-ΝΟΣ and Γ-ΟΔΟΝΤ. They were also impressed by the professionalism and commitment of our teachers Ms. Maria Argalavini, Ms. Peri Balta, Ms. Athina Grambova, Mr. Markos Kapourgiannidis, and Ms. Aspa Sidiropoulou.
Their job shadowing experience contributes to strengthening international partnerships and encourages the exchange of good practices in European vocational education.
