3.7. Kontroll på elever i riskzonen

Guiding Cities joins policy makers and education stakeholders to map policy and guidance and create coherent policy to respond to the complex needs in the fight against ESL.

The project aimed to:
• Analyse guidance actions in 4 countries through country-based focus groups including stakeholders in education and guidance.
• Develop a Guiding Cities Model and Checklist mapping different possible actions, actors community needs relative to guidance and lifelong learning.
• Establish and manage Working Groups and a survey of best practices (involving at least 40 stakeholders).
• Publish online the GCities Model and links to resources and practices for each type of action and/or each target group. The GCities tools will be available in 6 languages (EN, ES, CAT, IT, EL, RO).
• Test the GCities Model and Checklist-benchmarking tools with at least 40 communities or organisations.
• Improve professional development of local service providers and school guidance practitioners.

Programmet ICAM (Including Children Affected by Migration) är ett Erasmus+ program som inrättats för att barn som har påverkats av migration ska kunna utbilda sig. Programmet bidrar till att skolor ska kunna skapa en säker och trygg miljö för barn som påverkas av migration för att de ska kunna få ut så mycket som möjligt av sin utbildning.

This project is aims to fight against school dropout by addressing risk factors including:
• behavioural problems (discipline, violence ... )
• integration problems
• learning problems
• low motivation
• low self-esteem
• a lack of ambition
It is also important the student have a positive experience of school

 This project has two components:

1.) In "volet 1" students work collaboratively on a cross thematic directly related to the project. The aim is to restore and develop the pleasure of learning through informal activities.
2.) In "Volet 2" partner institutions (management, nursing service , teachers ... ) devoted to educational activities and educational research work together to produce a toolbox on prevention of ESL which can be adapted to local context. The focus is on prevention of conflicts, fight against discrimination, peer mediation, individual tutoring, class or group projects.

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. 

För att förebygga skolavhopp utvecklades och provades i projektet Jump@school en innovativ modell för insatser och dess inverkan på utsatta elevers inställning till skolan. Det omfattade en grupp med tio partner i sex länder, fyra skolor och 480 elever i åldern 14 – 17 år.

Projektet Junior Job Coach togs framför att hjälpa unga utsatta elever som kanske saknar social erfarenhet och kompetens när de tar sina första steg mot arbetsplatsen. I projekt matchas de noga med en välutbildad ungdomshandledare som på distans från arbetsplatsen kan erbjuda stöd och råd direkt.

Syftet med projektet MiCREATE är att främja inkludering av olika grupper med migrantbarn genom att anta en barncentrerad strategi för integrering av migrantbarn på utbildningsmässig och politisk nivå. Mot bakgrund av behovet att se över den rådande integrationspolitiken syftar forskningsprojektet till en omfattande undersökning av de nuvarande integrationsprocesserna av migrantbarn för att förbättra deras delaktighet, medverkan och välbefinnande.

"Our School - My Future" was an ESL project initiated within the framework of the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnerships for School Education. It aims to support cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices between schools from different countries across Europe.
Part of the problem of ESL is attributed to lack of support and guidance, disengagement from schooling, and secondary-level curricula which too often do not offer enough options for varied courses, alternative teaching pedagogies, experiential and other hands-on learning opportunities or sufficient flexibility and support.
The framework for this project was designed to focus mainly on in-school factors influencing ESL, such as teaching methods and curricular issues, positive/negative school climate, and the parents’ role as a contributing factor to ESL.
A distance education programme, “Promotion of healthy lifestyles and development of the students’ social skills through physical education and environmental activities” was offered to teachers from five partner countries. Some 65 teachers from Greece, Poland, Romania, Spain, and Turkey had the opportunity to participate in this training programme, along with six academics who are also members of the Hellenic Academy of Physical Education.

Det främsta målet med RUSESL-projektet är att förebygga att elever lämnar skolan när de är i slutet av sekundärutbildningen. Dessa elever är en målgrupp som ofta förbises, eftersom definitionen av avhopp från skolan avser utebliven skolgång före 16 års ålder eller innan eleven slutfört tre år i grundskolan.
