Solution

Le Sens de l'École offers 3 different workshop courses, for CM1-CM2-6e, in priority education. Their aim is to help children change their outlook on school and put meaning into their schooling, to enable them to take their full place at school and in the world.

Free of charge for schools, the courses consist of:
- 4 workshops of 1h30 led by Le Sens de l'École in team with the teacher;
- 4 sessions led by the teacher thanks to the teaching aids;
- an extension designed by the teacher to enable him/her to anchor the benefits of the program in his/her classroom for the long term.

Dear Captains,

For Le Sens de l'Ecole too, it's back-to-school time - and we're looking forward to getting back to school!!

🎬 Coming with us? We'll take you on a tour of a workshop with this 3-minute video made in a REP class in Paris.

As we have every year for the past 4 years, we team up with teachers to help them encourage their pupils' school attachment:
🤔 readjust misperceptions about school and their abilities that stand in the way of their well-being and motivation
🤝 nurture a positive classroom climate, favorable to learning and the fulfillment of each pupil.

A big thank you to you, dear Captains, for enabling us to continue offering these workshops free of charge to students in priority education!
