Sándor Petõfi Primary school is the single elementary
school in the small town of Székelykeresztúr. Two buildings host teaching and
schooling activities.
The everyday work of 415 pupils are organized and
controlled by 31 pedagogues and 8 associate staff.
Romanian-speaking pupils are taught in contracted
classes.
There are parallel classes in the primary and secondary
departments of the school.
Our school accepts children from different socially
disadvantaged environments. There are 2-3 children of gipsy origin in each class
on the average, and we welcome 14 children from orphanages as
well.
Unfortunately, resulting from the economic situation of
our small town, a significant percentage (about 30 per cent) of parents is on
benefits and allowances.
Therefore, the school plays a more and more significant role not only in organizing, but also – with the help of tenders – in financing the leisure activities of the children.
