(RO) The Romanian Educational System


Educational vision and mission

Teachers in School 49 aspire to provide an excellent basis for life-long learning by developing the physical, intellectual, social, emotional and creative abilities of each child.
Teachers struggle to provide a safe learning environment that enables critical thinking and engenders a love of learning.
Teachers emphasize inquiry, teamwork, mutual respect, and collaboration and are sensitive to the needs of all students and to their varying learning styles.
Teachers are committed to ensuring that all students are welcomed, respected, and challenged to realize their full potential.
Teachers believe they play an important role in engaging all students in the learning journey and making every child’s experience rewarding and successful.




Rules of behaviour


Students in School 49 must be respectful to their mates and teachers.
Students must wear a uniform (white shirt and black or blue skirts or trousers).
Students must behave and sign a behavior code on the first school day.


Schedule

School 49 requires a schedule that operates 2 shifts:
Preparatory classes & Classes I, II, III are at school between 8:00 and 11:45 (45-minute classes, 15-minute breaks);
Shift rotation: 11:45 – 12:10;
Classes IV, V, VI, VII, VIII: 12:10 – 18:00 (50-minute classes, 10-minute breaks).



Parents’ Meetings


Parents are invited to participate in the parents’ meetings held 5-6 times per year.

Besides this, they may meet the class teacher on a certain day of the week. Each class teacher is entitled to choose this “consultation” time according to their timetable and preference.

Parents are informed about their children’s marks and absences through the virtual gradebook or the student’s grade notebook (which is personal and must be brought to school every day by the student).


Students’ Council


Students’ Council consists of 11 – 15 members (students + 1 teacher) and they discuss students’ issues and suggest measures to improve the teaching activities, extracurricular activities, behaviour and absences, student-student relationship, student-teacher relationship, etc.
