Description

Project objective is that the Lääne-Viru county has a cross-county operating model and system involving different fields, which is monitored by the trained specialists of the respective network, thus ensuring early detection and effective prevention when dealing with young people at risk of dropping out of school.

 

The project activities will result in a local level cooperation model is developed in cooperation with various stakeholders in the county, in the process of developing and designing an integrated service. The cooperation model completed in the co-creation process will be piloted and continuously improved during the project according to the feedback and experience gained. A study visit to Agder County, Norway, will be carried out to improve the model and gain experience. During the project, instructional materials for early detection and prevention for the local government and educational institutions (separate for kindergartens and schools) will be created. Additionally, training for teachers of local government schools and kindergartens will also be conducted in each local government. A core group of teachers (kindergartens and schools) will receive training from each educational institution to enhance early detection and prevention of early school leaving. Support teams will be set up at educational institutions to share knowledge and promote networking within their school.
