The 1st Elementary School of Alexandria is a public school of aprovincial town of Northern Greece. It was founded in 1956. The stone building’s traditional architecture, as well as its courtyard area of 6 acres make it a jewel of the city.

We participate in 4 European programs Erasmus plus, two of those are in ΚΑ1, one in KA201 and one in ΚΑ227. We have also participated in the European project H2020: “Open Schools for Open Societies – OSOS” and we continue our collaborations in twinning projects.
This year, after quality and strict evaluation of our application, we were awarded the Erasmus Accreditation with code 2020-1-EL01- KA120-
SCH-094631 in the framework of Key Action 1 of the new program
(2021-2027) in the field of School Education.
We consider European programs to offer the opportunity to adjust and upgrade the role of teachers, students and overall the school unit, based on the triptych knowledge –skills – attitudes.
Our goal and vision is the transformation of our school into a modern and open learning space, in the hope that it will be possible to implement innovations and that will transform the culture of our students, teachers but also the wider society on the school concept. Read more…
