Hakkasskolan is a small school where we develop close relationships and dare to succeed and fail together. Our vision is "For a future where everything is possible!" We constantly develop teaching and our learning environments to give students the best possible conditions for learning. Hakkasskolan has been granted an ERASMUS+ accreditation for 2021-2027. This means continuous collaborative projects with other schools around Europe with opportunities for travel within the job for all participating educators. The goals of the ERASMUS+ work are to collaborate with other schools in Europe that have similar challenges as we do, to strengthen students' motivation to learn multiple languages, further develop distance education, and give students and teachers the opportunity to view their own hometown from new perspectives.
