Committees

The Education Board is responsible for administration, comprehensive school, preschool, other education, community college and library services, and, as a new feature, early childhood education.

Primary school and administration

The goal of the Karvia School System is to raise young people with healthy self-esteem and who are striving to progress, who will complete the basic education curriculum during their compulsory education. They should have the knowledge and skills to achieve a place in further education that is sufficiently demanding for their own development and abilities, where they would complete at least a secondary education degree.

Preschool education

The operating principle of preschool education is to provide integrated teaching and upbringing in collaboration with homes, taking into account the individual development of the student. Teaching is provided in the year before compulsory education begins. The teaching must be organized by the municipality, but the guardian decides on participation.

Other education (basic art education and music)

Basic art education is a long-term, versatile hobby activity, which is divided into basic studies and advanced studies. The purpose of basic art studies is to develop children and young people's visual expression, knowledge and skills, as well as critical evaluation of the flood of information. In Karvia, it is implemented as a purchased service from Petäjä College.

Adult Education Center

The goal of the civic college is to provide residents with opportunities for meaningful hobbies and studies.
Petäjä College organizes studies in Karvia.

Library work

The mission of library services is to satisfy the general need for education, information and recreation, and to support studying and independent information acquisition, as well as the enjoyment of literature and art.
