Our future is being decided right now in our schools. Only educated and proactive young people can change the Czech Republic for the better.

This story was inspired by the fate of hundreds of children in the Czech Republic. Being very timid, Vicky doesn’t talk to her classmates at all. She was always afraid of being tested in front of the whole class. Now when she should talk to the mic, she rather says nothing. We will find her a buddy for tutoring who will help her to gain self-confidence and improve her communication skills. DONATE Unavailability of internet connection at home makes impossible for Marián to join online classes. He’s eager to catch up with his classmates but he needs our help.

Schools

We work with 3,600 schools around the Czech Republic

People in Need has partnerships with more than half of all Czech schools, in areas that lack sufficient support from the state and other institutions. We help make school a place that supports children’s potential and individual abilities and where students learn to orient themselves in the modern world through modern methodology. We want today’s children to remember their school as a place full of knowledge and respect. And we also want for today’s schools to be able to raise active, respectable and self-confident citizens, who can change our society for the better. Read more

Teachers
Konference S asistenty k lepší škole

More than 11,670 pedagogues and teaching staff have participated in our workshops, seminars and debates in the last 16 years

We offer unique courses and methodology for schools and teachers. We support teachers in trying to fulfill the individual needs of every child. We organize seminars, provide training and consultation, offer innovative teaching materials and documentary films. In cooperation with teachers and experts we create courses accredited by the Education Ministry. For example, we introduce teachers to a Norwegian educational methodology called Grunnlaget, which prescribes approaches and specific instructions on how to provide support and work with disadvantaged children in primary school. People in Need also uses this methodology for teaching pre-schoolers.

Students

In the course of a year, we helped 2 417 children achieve a better education

Many children who attend regular schools do not receive adequate support, and as a result, some of them fall behind or do not complete their education at all. We try to prevent this from happening. We want every child to receive a quality education, without exceptions. We talk to parents about their children’s individualized needs, we train teachers and teaching assistants, and we promote mutual understanding. We offer a wide range of educational courses and workshops. We have organised seminars on communication between families and schools and put out a publication entitled Teachers – unexpected allies. During a single year, 450 children attended our 15 pre-school clubs, 895 children took advantage of tutoring we offer. Our career advisers helped 372 adolescents to select their future specialisation. Read more .

Stories of Injustice

In the past 14 years, 336 000 students took part in the biggest nationwide project on modern Czechoslovak history – Stories of Injustice

Czech society has lived under dictatorships for decades, nevertheless it seems to be blissfully unaware that today’s freedoms should not be taken for granted and need to be protected. In order for the younger generation, who were born after the fall of Communism, to be aware of this, we created the Stories of Injustice project.  Read more

Audiovisual courses

We have provide 269 audiovisual courses on our educational website

Documentary films are increasingly used as methodological teaching aids. They evoke strong emotions in students, and help peak their interest in a given topic. Which is why we prepared 269 audiovisual lectures, which are freely available on the jsns.cz website. We provide films together with supporting materials, which contain detailed information about the specific topic and which help the teacher discuss it with students in an engaging manner. This unique innovation helps teachers and, at the same time, is an attractive way of learning for the young generation.

More than 3 600 primary and secondary schools have joined this program, and the website has more than 5 000 registered users, serving as a testament to the usefulness of this approach.
