Here comes the second series of the School Contracts! As a reminder, the School Contracts, urban renewal programmes developed by the Schools Department at perspective.brussels, aim to strengthen the interaction between schools and their urban environment. Their objective is threefold: to improve the urban integration of schools; to increase the provision of collective facilities to inhabitants in the district by opening school infrastructure outside school hours; and lastly, to promote the opening of schools to the district through socio-economic activities and operations to requalify public space. A real win-win for both the school and the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
In December 2019, the Government of the Brussels-Capital Region selected two new School Contracts targeting five Brussels schools:
\n\u2022 A School Contract for the Ath\u00e9n\u00e9e Royal Toots Thielemans in Molenbeek: a secondary school in the heart of old Molenbeek with very little connection to its surrounding district, which is in the process of full urban regeneration;
\n\u2022 A School Contract for the Sint-Ursula and Sint-Pieterscollege schools as well as for the Coll\u00e8ge de la Fraternit\u00e9 and Sainte-Ursule in Brussels (Laeken): three primary schools and a secondary school located within \u00a0the same large building block which is characterized by many valuable tall trees\u00a0(former park of Drootbeek Castle). The School Contract aims to encourage synergies between the four schools and open up the park to the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
