2. Our school:
•located in Sîncel - a village in the heart of
Transylvania
•small public school, dating back as far as 1787-
1789, having three levels of education: preschool,
primary and middle school
•comprising 240 students, aged 3 to 15 years old, 55
of them being of Roma ethnicity (22.91%), and 15 of
them having special educational needs (6.25%)
•other two structures: one primary school in the
village of Pănade (3 km away) and one primary
school in the village of Iclod (1 km away); thus,
children attending middle school commute from
these two villages.
Sîncel and the other two villages form an
administrative unit which unfortunately, is an
underprivileged rural area as most people’s income
comes from agriculture and the level of
unemployment is very high as more than 50% of the
families are on welfare.
