General Information
At our school we work with an approach in which students must take considerable responsibility for their studies and work on projects that are taken from reality. Therefore, we collaborate with researchers and companies outside the school and included in international projects. We have many years experience of providing support for students with different needs. Our way of working is the most developed in the entire Gothenburg region and inspire other schools.  
Mission and Objectives

We hope to form a project that would focus on defining and overcoming national stereotypes of all the countries involved in the project.
We also hope to improve the understanding among young people and encourage communication between students of various nationalities.

Main Projects / Activities

The activities will be on-line discussions, research, work-shops during students’ exchange, discussions and study visits.
Angeredsgymnasiet is the initiator, along with companies in and outside Angered, to something called Angered challenge.
Angered challenge has only one goal: more young people from the suburbs to get out of work or go on after high school to other educational programs. We do this with both small and large companies.
Anyone who has something positive to contribute can be Angered challenge. Right now include Estrella with the challenge and has adopted ekonomiprogrammet. Students at Ekonomiprogrammet will then come to the Estrella several times during their training to see how different parts of a company works.

We firmly believe that sharing is an essential value in promoting the welfare of communities, that it is only through the dialogue between cultures that the development of peoples can be achieved and that associations, institutions and others, working together, can achieve great results for a real change. For over 20 years the Cooperative has worked for a fairer society, free from any discrimination based on gender, race or other differences. Considering that the Foundation shares our same ideals and aims, we would like to be a part of it.
