Scuola B@rdi

Scuola B@rdi is a project of the province of Parma (Italy) of consortile and telematic school aimed at reducing students communiting from remote areas of the appenine and combating drop out. This consortile school was born from the initiative of a group of schools in the territory of the Parma province which have created a common path for the first two years of secondary education aimed at students who live in small municipalities which are far away from their schools, in order to reduce their commuting and combat drop out. In particular, students from these municipalities can follow some general courses at distance and are provided with a platform for studying on line and staying in touch with teachers of their school. For more specific courses they have to go to travel to their school.
