Four days filled with inspiring impressions, meaningful encounters and valuable insights: From 18 to 21 October 2026, school leaders from Vienna had the opportunity to explore the Greek education system first-hand as part of an Erasmus+ job shadowing experience.
The programme focused on the project theme “Strengthening Sociocultural Competences”. Visits to eight schools in Athens offered valuable insights into everyday school life and opportunities for in-depth professional exchange with Greek colleagues.
Particularly insightful were the centralised structures of the Greek education system and the responsible use of available resources. What left a lasting impression was the warmth, openness and remarkable dedication of our hosts. The atmosphere of mutual respect and genuine humanity shaped our time together, making this European dialogue a truly enriching experience.
The job shadowing experience in Athens once again highlighted the value of European educational cooperation: exploring different perspectives, discovering common ground, learning from one another and gaining fresh inspiration for school development!
