Secondary School of the Future

The vision of the Pronea project is to transform, by quality education, the Upper Nitra region into a place worth working and living. However, we believe that the Pronea concept will have a positive impact far beyond the region.

We are a school with a vision

Pronea’s mission is to build a community ecosystem that will transform the Upper Nitra region through education and character development. It will, at the same time, change society from within, in the spirit of strong integrity of an individual.

Pronea’s aim is to promote quality education aimed at versatile development of the student, with emphasis on human values, reflecting the changing needs of society.

We want to reshape the region and focus on three specific areas: new education, humane technologies and innovation. We can see that the past forming this region (footwear industry, mining) no longer brings enough opportunities. We therefore want to move Partizánske and the surrounding region towards new areas of development. We have the ambition for Partizánske to be seen as one of the main cities dedicated to education, innovation and humane technologies.

The fields of study and areas that Pronea wants to offer its students are primarily topics of the future – smart technologies; the environment; education; arts and sport.

The Pronea concept also wants to address the practical issues of the future: How will we be educated? How will we live? What will we eat and drink? How will we travel? What about the waste? What will the production process look like? What to do to make innovation and information technology humane?

The Pronea ecosystem aims to create an attractive region for society. Through its concept, offer and opportunities it intends to motivate people to come back to Partizánske.

will become a reality

Pronea je o ľuďoch a pre ľudí. S víziou.

"We want to help young people to gain real-life experience and skills through high-quality education and a stimulat ing environment. That's why I founded Pronea - because I believe that together we can inspire Slovakia and bring the change. I belive that Pronea will not only improve life in Horná Nitra region, but inspire the change in Slovakia."

Ondrej Grenčík

Pronea Founder

New generation for Slovakia

"Teaching process itself is not enough for a student to grow into a young person with a strong character, experience and skills. That's why I connect all five pillars of Pronea, each developing a different part of personality: Academy (ability to find work), Hub (innovation), Campus (independence), Smart Sport (movement and health) and Smart Music (personality development) to form a harmonious unit that will help to bring up a new generation of strong personalities."

Štefan Hanus

Pronea Project Leader

Academy - more than an education

"I am preparing the Pronea Academy for you and everything that its preparation includes – from the legislative establishment of a secondary professional school to creation of the school educational programme. Our priority is to support the ability to find work, individuality and the student's desire to focus on something specific."

Petra Dzianová

Pronea Academy Team Leader

Maximize potential

"Every young person has a potential that often remains undeveloped or unused. At Pronea Academy, in cooperation with my team, I create the concept of education. I aspire that the school climate as well as its environment and teaching methods represent highly effective learning and help develop and exploit each student's full potential."

Jana Grenčíková

Pronea Academy

Reality before it gets real - with Hub

"As the leader of the innovation HUB, I work with mentors, corporate experts of partner companies and Pronea Academy teachers to prepare for you the environment for developing skills, ideas and experiences that you will benefit from in real life."

Jozef Žatko

Pronea Hub Team Leader

HUB allows to bring ideas to life

"I am a co-creator of the innovation HUB structure and the advisor in the creation of its technological background and processes. I help to connect businesses with which you will have the opportunity to grow. The Innovation HUB is a place that is built on cooperation with the world of public administration, companies, other schools. Students will work on projects of their choice here, with mentoring supervision of an expert."

Michal Hlavna

Pronea Hub Team Leader

Background is important

"My task is to prepare modern and attractive spatial background for Pronea Smart Sport, a meaningful project program, team management, coordination of activities between the pillars and partners as well as the selection of experts for individual positions."

Pronea is about the people who make it up

Desiatky dobrovoľníkov každodenne usilovne pracujú v pilieroch Pronea, aby prispeli k zlepšeniu života v regióne. Pridaj sa k nám aj ty!

 

Pronea is built on six pillars

Projekt Pronea napĺňa svoju misiu a víziu prostredníctvom pilierov, ktoré sa navzájom prepájajú a spolupracujú. Všestranný rozvoj osobnosti a dobrého charakteru študenta je pritom jedným z hlavných zameraní projektu.

The fundamental pillars of our educational process are largely identic with the so-called Bata’s educational concept. According to Bata, the school was supposed not only to be a preparation for life, but the life itself. It is a so-called pragmatic pedagogy that emphasises, among other things, creativity and initiative of the student. The moral code that Bata has enforced is equally important to us.

Moral principles, combination of work and social life in the educational process as well as the combination of school and real life promoted in Bata’s schools are some of the important principles that Pronea wants to offer, too. Even today, the approach of Bata’s school is the ideal concept for us – combining traditional Christian moral values and innovative teaching methods that promote the connection of learning and practice.

Partners

Our goal is to implement project teaching of the Pronea students in cooperation with mentors, corporate experts of Innovation Hub partner companies and with Pronea Academy pedagogues. Students will be led and encouraged to discover their talents and develop their potential in a particular business, non-profit or innovation project.

Thus, the Pronea Academy student will not only gain education, but also practical work experience, the opportunity to do business, the space for creativity and the protection of his/her own patents, which remain their intellectual property.
