SUPPORT FOR THE RELAY CLASSES
This
programme, which is lead by the
Rostagne d’Antibes College,
unites 16 school establishments
from the academy of Nice. These
classes are made up of young people
that have academic difficulty or
who are in conflict with adults.
The programme consists of working
with these people in order to try
and improve their personal and family
situations to allow them to reinvest
in the school learning patterns
and to give them a direction through
their personal training project.
This passage through the relay classes,
aims through these activities to
put them back into a series of projects.
Thanks to the support of the Foundation
Sophia Antipolis, the students and
their teachers have been received
by the CSTB, “Centre scientifique
et technique du bâtiment”,
by ALTEDIA, “advice and management
of human resource group”.
The next visit is planned to be
at the “ Institut non linéaire
de Nice”, and the l’IMPC
“Institute of molecular and
cellular pharmacology of Sophia

produced filmed documentaries with
the support of the Foundation Sophia
Antipolis who put their audiovisual
centre at their disposal.
