Free of charge for schools, the courses consist of:
- 4 workshops of 1h30 led by Le Sens de l'École in team with the teacher;
- 4 sessions led by the teacher thanks to the teaching aids;
- an extension designed by the teacher to enable him/her to anchor the benefits of the program in his/her classroom for the long term.
