Due to our successes, more and more people get into contact with us. Many of them ask: how can they volunteer at us?

The two most important features of our institution, the Dr. Ámbédkar Secondary Grammar School, Vocational School and Elementary School for Adult Education, is that first, unlike other secondary grammar schools we focus on teaching Roma students and second, we employ approaches of reform pedagogy in our everyday work (Waldorf, Freinet, Mahatma Phule, Paolo Freire). For more information about our work please see: _______­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­_____________________________

Our organization is entitled to host volunteers. If you would like to join our team, you can participate in the following activities: tasks related to preparation, data collection, administration, coordination, organization, communication, service or art falling into the scope of activities defined in the statutes of the Jai Bhim Network.

Due to our constant success, more and more people get into contact with us. Many of them ask: how do we operate?

The first thing an outside observer notices is that while in other secondary grammar schools one cannot see Roma students, one can see at our school. It is also usually noted that approaches of reform pedagogy appear in our everyday work (Waldorf, Freinet, Mahatma Phule, Paolo Freire).

The founder of the Dr. Ámbédkar Secondary Grammar School, Vocational School and Elementary School for Adult Education is the Jai Bhim Network. The founder is an ecclesiastical organization, the school is ideologically committed. However, this commitment is not very similar to what we know from other church schools: e.g. there is no compulsory religious instruction.
