The "School after school" (ȘDȘ) program is a complementary program to the mandatory school curriculum, which offers opportunities for formal and non-formal learning, for the consolidation of competences, remedial learning, and accelerated learning through educational, recreational, and leisure activities, and is addressed to both primary and secondary school students.

The SDS program can take place before or after the mandatory school curriculum (depending on the schedule of each level of study), at the school, if it has the material and human resources necessary to organize this program.

In primary education, the SDS program includes activities with specialized support (supervision and guidance in doing homework, recovery for students with cognitive or emotional difficulties, speech disorders through remedial activities, counseling, speech therapy, activities to encourage independent reading, etc.), workshops/thematic activities, and other recreational-type activities.

Each school, depending on the target group, establishes modules of activity packages, by combining the activities mentioned above.

In secondary education, the SDS program includes the activity package for accelerated learning and performance (preparation for participation in school competitions and olympiads, sports, artistic, or subject-based contests, participation/organization of festivals, exhibitions, school publications, participation in European cooperation activities), the support activity package (providing psycho-pedagogical assistance to recover learning gaps, support activities for doing homework, remedial activities, psychological counseling), and the life-preparation package (organizing personal development activities, activities aimed at developing an active attitude and involving the student, healthy lifestyle, career education, etc.).

The program can be organized modularly, over periods of time established at the level of the educational institution, according to the target group and identified needs, by combining activity packages oriented towards the development of transferable skills.

The program takes place in groups of students (maximum 12 students), constituted based on the options and identified needs. The activities are designed, organized, and supported by teaching staff from primary and secondary education, counselors, support teachers, librarians, speech therapists, lab assistants, pedagogues, coaches, school mediators, volunteers from the school, from competent partner institutions and organizations.
