The "School after school" program (ȘDȘ) is a program complementary to the compulsory school program, which offers opportunities for formal and non-formal learning, for the consolidation of competencies, remedial learning, and accelerated learning through educational, recreational, and leisure activities. It is addressed to both primary and secondary school students.

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

In primary education, the SDS program includes activities with specialized support (supervision and guidance in doing homework, recovery for students with cognitive or emotional difficulties, speech disorders through remedial activities, counseling, speech therapy, activities to encourage independent reading, etc.), workshops/thematic activities, and other types of recreational 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 accelerated learning and performance (preparation for participation in competitions and school olympiads, sports contests, artistic contests, subject-based contests, participation/organization of festivals, exhibitions, creating school publications, participation in European cooperation activities), the support package (providing psycho-pedagogical assistance for recovering learning gaps, support activities for doing homework, remedial activities, psychological counseling) and the life skills package (organizing personal development activities, activities aimed at developing active attitudes and student involvement, healthy lifestyle, career education, etc.).

The program can be organized modularly, on time units established 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 competencies.

The program runs in groups of students (maximum 12 students), formed according to identified options and needs. Activities are designed, organized, and supported by teaching staff from primary and secondary education, counselors, support teachers, librarians, speech therapists, laboratory assistants, educators, coaches, school mediators, and volunteers from the school or qualified partner institutions and organizations.
