1.3. Skoleledelse

The project partners designed and implemented a new anti-bullying programme in schools in five EU countries. It drew on the experiences of existing programmes and practices originated by the project partners working in different cultural contexts.  It provided further evidence of effective approaches to the reduction of bullying in schools that will inform the development of improved child centred, whole school strategies for adoption at European level.

‘Raising the Achievement of All Learners in Inclusive Education’ (Bedre Læring for alle Elever og Studerende i Inkluderende Undervisning). RA-projektet undersøgte fremgangsmåder til effektivt at forbedre skolers og lokalsamfunds resultater og kapacitet med henblik på at inkludere og støtte alle elever og studerende.

The project goal is to provide a comprehensive analysis of best practices for preventing ESL in partner countries in the areas: of ESL monitoring systems; and, methods of counteracting ESL and reintegrating students.

Project partners were from Poland, the UK and Italy. Outputs include a report on ESL monitoring systems, a report on prevention and reintegration methods, and a training pack.

Værktøjet til formativ vurdering af klasseklimaet er udviklet i henhold til rapporten “A formative, inclusive, whole school approach to the assessment of social and emotional education in the EU” og har til formål at give en omfattende og helhedsorienteret evaluering af klasseklimaet og vejlede lærere og elever i, hvordan de i fællesskab kan foretage positive ændringer i klassen.

MiCREATE-projektets formål er at stimulere inklusion af forskellige grupper af indvandrerbørn gennem en børnecentreret tilgang til integration af indvandrerbørn i uddannelsessystemet og på det politiske niveau. Med udgangspunkt i behovet for at revidere eksisterende integrationspolitikker foretager forskningsprojektet en omfattende undersøgelse af indvandrerbørns aktuelle integrationsprocesser med henblik på at styrke børnenes handlekraft, deltagelse og trivsel.

Since 2011, when a new school leader was appointed, the school has focused on the following goals: to promote active participation of students; foster inclusion; nurture autonomy and a sense of responsibility. To reach these goals, the school adopted interactive approaches reorganising learning spaces and educational activities.
Key interventions encompass:
• Outdoor schooling (nursery school). The aim is to stimulate sensory experiences by encouraging direct contact with nature.
• Bag-less learning (primary school). Students only wear a light purse to hold their personal belongings and a notebook for homework tasks while school is furnished functionally with advanced learning tools.
• Workshop rooms and flipped classrooms (secondary school). Teachers personalise their working space based on their functional teaching needs in terms of furniture arrangement, tools, books etc. In flipped classroom, time and self-study activities are reversed where students prepare for a class by watching a pre-recorded lecture or then lead the discussion.

The CARMA Toolkit fosters collaborative learning approaches in schools, based on non-formal learning (NFL) techniques, for learners who have been identified as being at risk of early school leaving and/or low achievement. The Toolkit provides practical resources for classroom practices and to transform school cultures to improve student motivation and participation. Involvement of the wider community in supporting collaborative learning is also encouraged. A Competence Assessment Model supports teachers to assess learners’ collaborative skills. A teacher’s diary to track implementation and learner progress accompanies the Toolkit.. The Toolkit is available in full and short versions in 8 languages English, Spanish, Italian, French, German, Portuguese, Dutch and Turkish.

Projektet ”Understøttende Inkluderende Skoleledelse” (SISL) undersøgte, hvordan man kan fremme inkluderende skoleledelse på skoleniveau og stille hjælpemidler til rådighed. Projektet så nærmere på, hvordan den rette ledelse vedrørende inkluderende undervisning kan resultere i alle elevers og studerendes fulde deltagelse i meningsfulde læringsmuligheder, give dem gode resultater og trivsel for alle, herunder også de der er mest udsatte for eksklusion.
