Project Summary

The project was a holistic offer of activities In the field of social education It was based on organizing social workshops (historic, of mother tongue, with the pedagogy specialist / psychologist and geographic) preparations for 72 students of primary schools involved In this Project. The offer of educational help was directed especially to those kids that are in a situation that confines the access to learning or makes it difficult due to disabilities, educational difficulties, economical obstacles, cultural differences health problems social obstacles or the problems of a geographical nature . The planned actions derives from the needs of school community as well as family needs and they help in boosting the quality of the early primary education as well as developing social, civil and intercultural competences of the students through the realization of 160 hours of social workshops and a support in improving the abilities and professional competences of 16 teachers within this range.The aim of the social workshops was to support a family in the process of child preparation for self-reliant life, introducing appropriate social attitudes by giving the children school care during days that are free from school lessons. These would be educational and prophylactic classes. The priority here was also the influence on the pupils so that they could better cope with problem solving, mastering their social competences. They would shape the attitude of tolerance through the respect for the feelings, views, likes, customs and doings of others even if they were different from or completely contradictory to those the children already have.
The main aim of the Project was the social activation of 72 children that attend to both primary schools through developing in the pupils some basic abilities, early care and preparation for having an appropriate function in their peers group and the local community, family life, local community, native country, Europe and the word. It starts in the childhood that the parents and caregivers are the first to have the pedagogical importance and function so as to teach the children an appropraiate behavior. Almost everyday and subconsciously the introduce values and norms thanks to them the kids socialise and get the direction on how to live In their country and its culture. As the time goes the school is more involved In the process of bringing up and education as a institutian that has an educational function. Students, initially in a new environment start to learn more about notions concerning their cultural circle – including customs and rules that work at school. As they are more and more experienced they make connections – they start to participate in a social life In a more and more full way. Canons of moral gained by the students derive from cultural norms accepted by a given society and here a very important role of cultural integration of children, their parents, as well as teachers, plays the education – and the school is mostly facing the difficult task.
What is more the project aim was to enforce the Professional profile of the 16 teachers employed in the schools participating In the project. Thanks to the work done within the project the teachers were gain additional abilities that are crucial in work with children concerning teaching tolerance and schaping appropriate social attitudes. The knowledge was broadened with the elements of social education. Thanks to work on modern equipment bought for classes within the project, innovative workshop programs will be developed for work with children from community day rooms. Exchange of experience with the teachers from partner school will also allow to see the necessity for change in recent individual and routine action that now will be done more effectively because it will be mastered through the workshops. It is known that a quality of a school work is the sum of all actions done by particular teachers. By improving the quality of the teachers’ work the development of the school as an institution was guaranteed. The development is going to move in the multi-aspect educational progress of students. Thanks to direct cooperation and an exchange of experiences by the teachers during organized study visits, workshops and professional trainings crucial competences will be enriched and enforced in the teachers. In this instance team teaching will become another possibilty of work culture creation in which the teachers gain the space for the development of their personal vision, they take the energy and motivation for their personal growth and what is the most important the growth of students.We must remember that “Nobody is born with any prejudices”, and fighting against tolerance should be an inspiration for the pedagogical stuff to take action against discrimination and violence in order to protect the basic student’s rights. Within the project activities we will be “Educated to tolerance through tolerance”.
