The GO! Atheneum Geraardsbergen is a medium-sized school (900 pupils) in Geraardsbergen, a city located in the South of East Flanders, close to the language border. The school has 140 teachers. The campus accommodates pupils from the second stage of ASO (Latin, Science, Economics, Human Sciences, and from the third degree onwards) these directions are split up further. Our school offers both BSO and TSO courses from the hard sector as well as the soft sector such as Trade, Office, Accounting-Informatics, Social-technical Sciences, Technology-Sciences, Electromechanics, Secretariat Languages, Industrial ICT, Woodworking, Basic Mechanics, Electrical installations, Integral safety, Care-Nutrition, Painting and decorative work, Bodywork, Childcare and Home and Elderly care. Pupils can also follow a 7th specialization year in BSO and go on internships in the field from the third grade. The students of the third stage TSO must also complete an
internship according to the curriculum. We want to offer education in the broad sense of the word. We guide our students to the right study and career choice. At the same time, we shape them socially, emotionally and personally. With us you will find a colorful mix of personalities. We pay attention to all teenagers, also for those who need additional guidance. The school team dedicates itself daily to pupil-oriented and pupil-friendly action so that pupils can develop their talents to the maximum. From School group 20 to which our school belongs, the focus is recently on internationalization. As pioneers of our school group, we want to actively contribute to this by offering students an internship abroad and thus giving them a unique experience and to develop further on a personal, professional
and social level. Our school wants to offer the pupils with fewer opportunities the same opportunities as everyone else.
