Comenius Multilateral School Partnership<br />
Countries involved:<br />
TR, IT, PL, RO, SK<br />
Key words: Disadvantaged groups, Transition from primary to secondary,<br />
Involvement of parents<br />
Description:<br />
Thematic Field: ESL<br />
The countries involved had similar cultures and common problems. The project<br />
focuses on primary school children and problems during transition periods in the<br />
education path. It dealt with the culture of students coming from suburbs to city<br />
centres for high school education since pupils in suburbs had many problems when<br />
they went to city centre in order to go on with their education and they were sent<br />
there without taking any precaution.<br />
Therefore, the aim of this project was to find solutions to their problems by involving<br />
parents, pupils, teachers, local and school managements, public<br />
organizations, the association of school and family membership in the process.<br />
Through questionnaires, home visits, exchange of students it was possible to get firsthand<br />
information about the issues and real problems.<br />
Furthermore, the project carried out an evaluation based on the data collected and a<br />
play was presented to the students to help them to identify pupil's problems and<br />
their expectations. A seminar was prepared for all related institutions. At the end, a<br />
bulletin and brochure were designed as products and were promoted on the website<br />
as well.<br />
Thanks to this project, intercultural dialogue was promoted and solutions identified.<br />
All the countries prepared a CD/DVD to introduce their own culture, traditional plays<br />
and dances.<br />
