Secondary school “Centar za odgoj i obrazovanje” is a vocational school for students with mild to severe learning disabilities. The school has approx. 150 students (age 13-21) with learning disabilities and over 40 special needs teachers and other experts who work with them. Most of their students are capable to finish education to become assistants in various fields, but they have 3 groups for students with permanent disability for independent life and work. In these groups, they learn skills of self-care, socialization for constructive inclusion in the life in society and training for execution of different jobs in accordance with their abilities. Objectives of the school are: education and care for disabled children, helping them with socialization and employment after finishing school.
