UID meetings, councils and work groups

For an overview of this study year's meetings, see the UID meeting plan, and check the online schedule in Time Edit for any changes of dates.

School Meetings

School Meetings are held the first Wednesday of each month, at 13.00 in the Auditorium. All students and all staff are expected to attend, since the School Meeing is a forum for sharing information and raising important issues that concern all of us, and also for discussing the development of the school. Issues can be raised during the meeting, or in advance by contacting the UID leadership or Ställverket student representatives.
