My school and education 3.
I attend the Integrated Secondary School – Center of Vocational Education at 61 Olomoucká Street in Brno. It is one of the largest secondary schools in the Brno region – the number of students is about 1,500. It offers vocational education and training in many studies (studijní obory).
The school teaches mechanical engineering, electronics, information technology, machine engineering admini- stration, locksmith and gunsmith studies and electrician studies. The school was founded (založena) in 1931 as the first apprenticeship school in the Czech Republic.
Later it was transformed into the integrated vocational school. Nowadays, the school provides secondary vocational education in a three year apprenticeship or in four year study courses. The school also offers re-training programmes in CNC, in automated CNC programming, PLC control and robotics. All these courses are offered to both young people (aged 15 to 19) and adults.
Subjects taught at our school are as follows: Czech, foreign language (English or German), geography,civics, mathematics, physics, electronics, automation, information technology, chemistry, labs, workshop, physical education (= physical training) etc.
Education is of crucial importance to business. It has a major impact on the skills and knowledge ofemployees. It also influences their attitudes to work.
