Description

Project objective is to increase the capacity of the city of Haapsalu to provide support services to disadvantaged children and young people that promote inclusion in education and prevent them from leaving education early. The result of the project is a working model of cooperation and coordination between the support network of the child.

The project activities will result in the creation of an assessment tool to identify students at risk of dropping out of school and their need for services as well as in a coordination scheme to increase coherence between fields. Guidance materials (evaluation model, evaluation tools, intervention plan and action plan) have been prepared and specialists related to the provision of integrated services have been trained. The provision of support services to reduce the risk of dropping out of school with the help of the completed materials has been piloted.
