The local Council has not made any ruling concerning primary schools but the rules regarding life in the school have been explained in a calendar for the pupils.

The pedagogical objectives for each of the stages are defined by the Department of Education, Culture and Sport; they are finalised at the local level by an establishment project and a schools charter, one peculiarity of which is to refuse any exclusion by allowing each pupil to attend classes with friends of the same age.

On the administrative level, a Schools Commission of 20 persons assisted by a full-time Director is responsible for the organisation and administration of the public schools.

An Association of the pupils' parents maintains regular contact with the teachers and the schools' administrators.
