For a better future, perseverance is always in the present tense!

School perseverance is a group effort!

Teachers who guide, relatives who congratulate, employers who support, friends who listen, or coaches who motivate – these seemingly minor everyday actions have a major impact on young people’s perseverance at school and educational success.

When we encourage, listen to, support, and guide our young people, their determination and perseverance shines through.

Let’s give them what they need to believe in their dreams, unlock their potential, and persevere.
