Introduction speech
Hello, prospective students and parents!
Distance education is an alternative educational method in which, students have the opportunity to study anywhere and at any, this helps to provide the possibility of education to the whole community regardless of age, gender, belonging to a social class or group, location whether that is in Latvian or abroad, it provides flexibility and mobility, with particular reference to everything new, including the latest information and communication technologies
The 2009 / 2010 school year, was the first year that Latvian schools ever heard about the completion of secondary education by using distance education.
Both while founding Riga Distance Learning High School, as well as in everyday work with students and parents I have accumulated a lot of experience in various issues and situations. At the moment I can say that a 100% of our students, have very individual situation, each of them is different, at least regarding the study process, however all of these issues can be resolved.
I am glad and very proud of the fact that the Riga 1. Distance Education High School is open to all who are not afraid to change something in their life who clearly know what they want to achieve, which for some reason they we unable to do in a traditional full time learning environment. Our school - R1DEHS - is a place where both teachers and students are and will be partners who share the responsibility, both for the student's learning process running smoothly, as well as the learning outcomes.
R1DEHS guarantees the confidentiality of personal data, as well as an individual approach, including education individualization that allows the student to star learning using their individual learning plan, at any time during the year. I can confidently say that R1DEHS is a school that will give students the opportunity to learn at any time of day, anywhere they have Internet connection, at their own pace and manner.
We welcome everyone who wants to learn and gain experience in distance learning, who wants to combine work and/or hobby with the training! My experience shows that distance learning is well consistent with anyone’s career. Our distance learning school is designed to promote the career development of our students, contributing to the successful integration not only in the educational environment, but also the labor market, ensuring the competitiveness of our graduates. R1DEHS is a school where by staff having previous experience in distance education, as well as with their persistent effort we can ensure the quality of education.
I am pleased to say that some of Riga Distance Education High School first-year graduates have graduated with honors from Latvia University of Agriculture, some continue their studies in the University of Latvia, and some are studying in foreign universities. Some who have graduated from the school, have since take up professional sports or the arts. It is a pleasure to see the progress we had made and, therefore, Riga 1. Distance Education High School was established to continue offering both Primary Education and Secondary Education.
Come and make sure that – Riga 1. Distance Education High School is the school that will strengthen and support you in your learning process.
