The Parent-Teacher Association of Stella Maris College is once again participating in a project being carried out with the support of the European Union in the framework of the Grundtvig Action of the Socrates Programme.
The project, Centre for International Parent Cooperation, focuses on the development of programmes for the education of parents.
Other participants are the Pedagogical Institute of the Archdiocese of Vienna, the Institute for Further Education from Finland, two schools from Norway and an educational institute from Estonia.
PTA chairman Lawrence Zammit said the theme for this year was school democracy, reflecting an ever-increasing need across Europe to involve parents to a more significant extent as key stakeholders in the country's educational system, in the education of the child and the governance of the school.
