Programme: Programme "Education" 2021-2027

Like every Bulgarian school, in 4th Primary School "Prof. John Atanasov" there are manifestations of aggression and violence by students. Every year, the school conducts a survey among students about aggression and bullying, through which the level of this indicator is measured from the students' perspective. The school has an active coordination council for combating school bullying and aggression, and a plan for its work is prepared annually. An analysis of the problem shows the following identified needs:
1. Developing teachers' skills to build an authoritative relationship with students; ;
2. Building and sustaining new socio-emotional skills including empathy, sympathy, responsibility, tolerance and mutual assistance in students;
3. Involving parents as effective partners in the prevention of violence and bullying at school.
