Spring Academy 2019

The Spring Academy idea was born in 2015 out of research into educational reform in Greece and any other country where educational choice is limited. This research was, and continues to be, in collaboration with educational reform experts and organisations from all over the world.
From 2017 until 2019 the Spring Academy operated as a temporary learning community in Corfu, Greece.
From the very beginning our aim was its evolution into a prototype educational structure with actual and digital localities without borders. These are the roots of this evolution.
