Our mission
Our goal is to support teachers (pre-schools, primary and secondary schools), social workers and parents, helping them to provide the best care for children. There are certainly different ways to approach early education and care, however we strive to define the methods and strategies that have yielded the most consistent results based on empirical evidence. We support the involvement of key actors and their experiences with these methods.

“My experience with SCHOLA EMPIRICA is absolutely excellent. I was afraid, but there was no reason for that – I made databases, searched contacts, communicated with summer school students, read the papers, provided my opinion, and the little office work was not even boring due to everything I did. Never in my life did I learn as much as during the month in EMPIRICA SCHOLARSHIP.”

“The EMPIRICA SCHOLARSHIP gave me a great opportunity to use my skills and skills to learn in practice. I was part of the Prague Summer Schools project, where I helped with the leadership and organization of students during their leisure activities. My great memory is thanks to a guided tour of Prague with the homeless (Pragulic), which gave me a completely different view of this metropolis. All the experience and friendship gained with students from different cultures and countries helped me to broaden my horizons and team work skills. I am very pleased with this opportunity and I know that the moments I have experienced in EMPIRICA SCHOOL will be remembered for the rest of my life.”

“Thanks to SCHOLA EMPIRICA, I could travel, gain experience, see the country with tradition and cultural habits in which children are educated. I have not only gained experience but also a lot of energy and ideas for the coming days. I am happy to be able to bring everything into practice and to contribute to the education of healthy self-confident children.”
