2020-1-PL01-KA201-082096
Project description
The project responds to the Europe 2020 priorities in the area of education and training, youth and early school leaving in the context of globalization and labour market integration.
With increasing migration into and within an already culturally diverse EU, even more efforts in the educational system are needed to respond to the needs of pupils with a migrant background and to prepare schools, teachers and parents for growing diversity in today’s classroom. Target groups are: primary and lower-secondary school students (6-14 years old), parents, primary and/or lower -secondary school teachers and experts, school psychologists, educators and management staff.
Project objectives
- Foster adaptability of school-age children (6-14 years old) to use and boost their learning potential and to meet the requirements of the education system of the unknown environment.
- Help children and young people from migrant backgrounds in the project countries to become well-integrated into the education system abroad and through this into society.
- Contribute to improving migrant pupils’ overall school performance and well-being.
- Prepare highly qualified, special primary and lower-secondary educators & teachers to work with migrant students.
- Tackle educational disadvantages and early school, leaving by giving migrant parents’ opportunities to support their children in their learning in the project countries.
- Reduce social isolation and perceived barriers to full integration among migrant children.
Project Results
- Model of working with a pupil returning from abroad to the native education system. Model of working with a foreign pupil coming to a new country (an adaptation of foreign pupil).
- Training Toolkit – Pupil adaptation. The purpose of this output is to transfer the models of working with returning pupils (O1) and those coming from abroad (O2) into customized teachers’ training. It will be a professional development programme for tutors, educators, teachers / would-be teachers to create a productive and inclusive learning environment in a diverse classroom.
- Changing perspectives: e-learning course for teachers. An online learning platform with 5 trainings for lower and upper-secondary teachers to develop the attitudes, knowledge, and skills to make their classrooms effective learning environments for all pupils and transform pedagogy. M-Learning for parents. The purpose of the product is to develop skills of partners for supporting children in the process of changing schools and adaptation to the new education system and a new peer group, linguistically and culturally different.
