L-Edukazzjoni għall-Familja hija waħda mill-Azzjonijiet Edukattivi ta’ Suċċess (SEAs) identifikati fil-proġett ta’ riċerka INCLUD-ED. Strateġiji għall-inklużjoni u l-koeżjoni soċjali fl-Ewropa mill-edukazzjoni (il-Kummissjoni Ewropea, is-Sitt Programm Qafas, 2006-2011).

Minħabba li l-problemi ta’ saħħa mentali mmultiplikaw fost iż-żgħażagħ fuq skala globali, UPRIGHT huwa proġett li jgħallem il-ħiliet meħtieġa għal saħħa fiżika u mentali tajba. Dan qed jiġi implimentat fl-iskejjel, u l-adolexxenti bikrin, il-familji tagħhom u l-persunal kollu tal-iskejjel parteċipanti huma involuti.

The Joaquim Ruyra Elementary School is located in a disadvantaged suburban district of Barcelona. In the 2016-2017 school year, 92% students were immigrants representing 28 different nationalities (including Pakistan, Morocco, Georgia, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Peru, the Philippines, China, Bangladesh, Senegal, and the USA) or from minority background (Romani). The school has a 40% mobility rate.  

National and international press have referred to the school as the miracle school as it had achieved academic outcomes above the average in the Catalan standardised tests, outperforming elite schools in the Catalonia region.

All classes in the school feature group work 40% to 60% of the time. The groups mix students of different abilities, genders and nationalities.  The small groups are designed to ensure that no one is left out, and students are encouraged to participate actively.  Each group is facilitated by an adult (e.g. a classroom assistants, a parent).  Psychologists and special education teachers may also work in the classrooms, and they support volunteer parents, teachers and the students.  The extra support and student interaction are considered as essential for supporting and reinforcing children’s learning. 

Dan ir-rapport jipprova jinforma u jiggwida l-ippjanar strateġiku fuq żmien qasir u medju tal-għaxar muniċipalitajiet tal-bliet Urbact - PREVENT u tal-muniċipalitajiet, l-awtoritajiet lokali u l-iskejjel l-oħrajn kollha madwar l-Ewropa f'dak li jirrigwarda l-involviment tal-ġenituri fl-edukazzjoni biex jiġi evitat it-tluq bikri mill-iskola. Din ir-reviżjoni hija bbażata fuq analiżi ta' dokumenti tal-Kummissjoni u tal-Kunsill tal-UE dwar l-ESL u l-inklużjoni soċjali, djalogu u proċess ta' konsultazzjoni kontinwa mal-10 muniċipalitajiet involuti fil-proġett Urbact - PREVENT u tinterroga riċerka internazzjonali rilevanti għal dan il-qasam. PREVENT huwa ffinanzjat mill-programm tal-UE Urbact.

Il-Laqgħat Letterarji bi Djalogu (Dialogic Literary Gatherings - DLG) huma waħda mill-Azzjonijiet Edukattivi ta' Suċċess (Successful Educational Actions - SEAs) identifikati fil-proġett ta' riċerka INCLUD-ED. Id-DLG jintużaw sabiex itejbu l-edukazzjoni tat-tfal u taż-żgħażagħ f'kuntesti differenti madwar id-dinja. Id-DLG hija attività ta' qari bi djalogu bbażata fuq żewġ prinċipji: il-qari ta' ktieb letterarju klassiku (bħal Romeo u Ġuljetta, l-Odissea, Don Quixote) segwit mid-diskussjoni tat-tifsiriet, tal-interpretazzjonijiet u tar-riflessjonijiet bil-metodu ta' tagħlim fil-forma ta' djalogu. Tista' tinvolvi lit-tfal u lill-membri tal-familja tagħhom. Dan l-eżempju jfiehem id-DLG u r-riżultati tagħhom fil-prattika.

To improve students’ learning outcomes and the level of engagement with the school has developed a transformation project structured around seven key elements for school improvement: school climate, school image, academic excellence, methodological change, development of emotional intelligence, introduction of art in school and openness to the community. During the first years of the project, the emphasis was made on the two key areas: methodological change through the implementation of project-based learning and strengthening links of the school with families and communities.
