The “School after School” (ȘDȘ) program is a complementary program to the compulsory school program, which offers opportunities for formal and non-formal learning, for competencies consolidation, remedial learning and acceleration of learning through educational, recreational and leisure activities, and addresses both primary and secondary school students.

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

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

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

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

The program can be organized modularly, in time units established at the level of the educational institution, according to the target group and identified needs, by combining packages of activities oriented towards developing transferable skills.

The program is carried out in groups of students (maximum 12 students), formed according to identified options and 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 authorized partner institutions and organizations.
