Description
In this year Primary school "Štítnik" is visited by 296 pupils and 219 from them are Roma. All these pupils come from families which lack a way of promoting the social and educational development of their children and do not give them stimulating environment. The project objective is to support education of those pupils by providing conditions for educational process due to the unique characteristics of these groups, spread information and raise awareness. The project is expected to change the negative attitude of Roma students to education and work, using interesting methods and forms of teaching, and by pointing out the positive role models of the Roma community. The project outputs will be ensured through teaching of Romani cultural studies as a new school subject and developing students´ artistic skills, work habits, working with computers and training to teaching through the services of interest.
