A certificate equivalent to secondary school diploma is provided after successful attendance. The school’s curriculum differs from that of the normal education, it is more flexible and it follows an adapted teaching methodology and assessment of the trainees.

The Second Chance Schools were established in Greece by the Law 2525/97, in the context specified by the declared principles of the European Union. The programme forms part of the Operational Programme Education and Lifelong Learningof the Ministry of Education, Research and Religious Affairs and it is co-funded by the European Union (European Social Fund) and national funding.

Who can attend?

The Second Chance Schools target people above 18 years old, who have not completed the compulsory secondary education.

The institution of Second Chance Schools is a european programme within the framework of the fight against social exclusion. These Schools aim to offer adults opportunities to enter again the education and training system, form a positive attitude towards learning, acquire basic knowledge and skills, enhance their personality and finally, facilitate the access to labour market.
