One of the differentiate attributes of the Arsakeia-Tositseia Schools is the function of the Epopteia, an exceptional and unique service of the educational data in Greece, not only when it was constituted but even today.
Epopteia has a broad spectrum of administrative and executive capacities so as to supervise and assess the educational work accomplished in the Arsakeia-Tositseia Schools. We should take into consideration that about 9.000 students study in the Schools of Philekpaideutiki Etaireia around Greece (Athens, Thessaloniki, Patras, Ioannina, and Tirana).
All the Schools are dictated by the same operating principles and provide homogenous education and culture.
That laborious coordinating duty has been assumed, accomplished and fulfilled by the Epopteia of the Schools with great success.
