BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANISATION
The Coimbra Centro School Group (AECC), created on July 4, 2012 by government order, added the Jaime Cortesão Secondary School, the Poeta Manuel da Silva Gaio School Group and the S. Silvestre School Group.
Headquartered at the Escola Secundária, in a vertical organization, it offers all teaching cycles, from pre-school to the 12th year and, also, night teaching. It is a very diverse group, which asserts itself as an inclusive school, determined to respond to different audiences.
HOW THE ORGANISATION WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE DISSEMINATION AND EXPLOITATION OF THE PROJECT RESULTS
The grouping of Coimbra centro schools will be important in terms of publicizing the project. Although it is not a higher education institution, it has a long experience in teaching international students, namely refugee students. It can be a good reference to check access to higher education for students who finish secondary school.
