Good news for Metula residents: school opens with advanced educational model

The 'Hanadiv' school in Metula will reopen after three years, with about 45 students, most of them residents of the moshav. Studies will take place in small classes of 8-10 students, within the framework of the 'Complete Education' model, which emphasizes personal attention and synchronization between formal and informal education. Council head David Azoulay said that the system should adapt itself to the child. The school will also be open to children from outside the settlement, aiming to attract families from the Galilee.

The 'Hanadiv' school in Metula will reopen after a three-year hiatus, with about 45 students, of whom about 90% are residents of the moshav. Studies will begin in the first stage in grades 1-6, and will operate under the 'Complete Education' model, which includes small classes of 8-10 students, synchronization between formal and informal education, continuous contact with parents, and adapting learning to students' needs. The council has completed recruiting the educational staff, and the school will also be open to children who are not residents of Metula, hoping to attract families from other communities in the Galilee. Council head David Azoulay said that 'the system should adapt itself to the child,' and defined this as an educational revolution. The opening of the school is seen as a central step in rehabilitating the settlement and bringing families back, after residents were forced to leave their homes. The small classes are partly due to the number of returning students, but the council sees this as an opportunity for a personal educational model.
