The “School after School” program (ȘDȘ) is a program complementary to the mandatory school curriculum, which offers opportunities for formal and non-formal learning, for skill consolidation, remedial learning and acceleration of learning through educational, recreational, and leisure activities, and is addressed to both primary and secondary school students.

The SDS program can take place before or after the mandatory school curriculum (depending on the schedule of each level of study), at school, if it has the necessary material and human resources to organize this program.

In primary education, the SDS program includes activities with specialized support (supervision and guidance in doing homework, remediation for students with cognitive, emotional difficulties, language disorders through remedial activities, counseling, speech therapy, activities to encourage independent reading, etc.), workshops/thematic activities, and other recreational-type activities.

Each school, depending on the target group, constitutes modules of activity packages, by combining the activities mentioned above.

In secondary education, the SDS program includes the package of activities for learning acceleration and performance (preparing for participation in school competitions and olympiads, sports or artistic contests, by subject, participation/organization of festivals, exhibitions, the creation of school publications, participation in European cooperation activities), the support activity package (providing psycho-pedagogical assistance to recover learning gaps, support for doing homework, remedial activities, psychological counseling) and the package for life preparation (organizing personal development activities, activities aimed at developing an active attitude and student involvement, healthy lifestyle, career education, etc.).

The program can be organized in a modular way, with time units set at the level of the educational institution depending on the target group and identified needs, by combining activity packages oriented towards the development of transferable skills.

The program is carried out with groups of students (maximum 12 students), formed according to the identified options and needs. The activities are designed, organized, and delivered by teaching staff from primary and secondary education, counselors, support teachers, librarians, speech therapists, laboratory assistants, pedagogues, trainers, school mediators, and volunteers from the school, from accredited partner institutions and organizations.
