“I got much better grades”
The Chagall project, which aims to promote equal opportunities, got off to a successful start in Winterthur: 11 of the 14 young people who received support passed their entrance exams.
–Jodelle Gretler (15) took part in the Chagall support program at the cantonal school in Büelrain and in March passed both entrance exams for the grammar school and the vocational baccalaureate school. She was born in Switzerland, her mother comes from Angola and is a service clerk, her father is a cook.

Jodelle Gretler now has a choice: Should she switch to the Büelrain canton school in the summer or would she rather do an apprenticeship as a clerk at Axa with a vocational qualification? The 15-year-old has just passed both entrance exams. “I am very pleased! I’ll probably choose the apprenticeship.”
