During the summer and at the beginning of the year, we will hold placement and adaptation meetings in schools. Integration into the program involves the varying availability of different spaces in the school and the adaptation of the nature of the space and the school to your unique way of operation.
If necessary, interviews and tours will be conducted in the school to check suitability.
