Description of organisation

Our school is for youngsters with special needs, that means our students have different psychiatric diagnoses like ADHD, autism, schizophrenia etc. or they have social problems (for example alcoholic families, lack of social skills, criminal background and so on). We have youngsters from 8 years old up to 28 years old. School has several departments and classes with teachers and pedagogues, each group runs own program. Some of the students live in the school (boarding school), but some of them come to school every morning and go back home after school program finished. The school program is very intensive; it includes teaching in the classes and practical activities. Besides that during school year we have a highlight activities like Olympic games, autumn and winter concerts, summer theater. These activities are organized in cooperation with other schools and there are involved up to 600 participants. Every year school organizes small or big trips for students to different countries in Europe and not only in Europe. Our School is situated 5 km from the center of Roskilde (famous old Viking town), in beautiful green area, in the middle of the forest and next to the fjord.
