Quality Assurance in schools State Secondary Schools have school autonomy They can ask for external Quality Assurance Certificate for some topics orfor the school, also to apply for regional and European funds. We have a Quality Assurance System in all regional VET schools. To maintain external certification and accreditation you have to ask for a visit of external experts every year
