LEI is the flower necklace that the Hawaiians offer to welcome foreigners for their arrival. “LEI - Language, Environment, Inclusion” will be the name of our project who wants to welcome in the school institutions marginalized young people, starting from refugees and asylum seekers, but including also early school leavers (ESL) students. LEI refers to 3 priorities of the Programme: a) School - Supporting schools to tackle ESL and disadvantage; b) Horizontal - Social Inclusion; c) Horizontal - Transparency and recognition of skills and qualifications. Project LEI will contribute to these priorities by developing a dynamic platform that will support, encourage and enable better engagement from all stakeholders involved in supporting the inclusion of refugees and disadvantaged students in the school system, suggesting at the beginning if the school or the labour market is the right option and then, in the school environment, giving to each young a support to recognize his/her qualification, to improve the language knowledge and to support the social inclusion also fostering the co-work of refugees and local students, with the involvement of potentially ES,L in order to cross-contaminate the experiences and generate a positive and inclusive attitude and environment. The primary target group are teachers of the schools; then, for some of the LEI tools, the secondary target includes also government agencies, public services practitioners working with refugees/asylum seekers (R/AS). The long-term beneficiaries of the LEI project are R/AS and ESL. The project activity will involve several stakeholders groups: school decision makers, school directors, p.a. offices involved in the immigration sphere, families (both of R/AS and ESL). The tools produced by the partnership, within the foreseen 6 IOs, will offer to the target groups and to the final beneficiaries an integrated package of active measures that will firstly realise the following actions. 1) Planning and writing up of a Baseline Audit and Needs Analysis Report with a focus on the best practices to foster the inclusion of R/AS and supporting the potentially ESL. 2) Support government agencies, public services practitioners and advisers to understand if it is more suitable for the R/AS to be addressed to the labour market or the school system. 3) Develop good practices to enable better communication and collaboration between agencies working with R/AS and school system, improving the understanding between the two systems to provide responsive and inclusive services that meet the language, cultural and social inclusion. 4) Design an inclusive LEI Environment and plan a LEI path to allow the teachers and practitioners to handle the complex situation of disadvantage young people. 5) Design and test a training module for teachers to better recognize the qualification of R/AS in order to address them to the suitable school offer and to understand which are the weakness to be supported for a quicker inclusion. 6) Design and test a language training module with innovative characteristics (gamification) to better involve the R/AS and to offer a new didactic methodology for the teachers/trainers. 7) Design and test a social inclusion module which will help teachers to work with R/AS and ESL students, planning a common project work which will help, thanks to the exchange of experience, a better inclusion of all the students in the school and social environment. 8) Building up a platform hosting all the tools and develop and design guidelines. 9) Publish the LEI Charter to valorize the project outcomes and to offer to the decision makers of school and immigration systems a standardized model easy and useful to be adopted. LEI project has a partnership of 6 organizations (from DE, ES, PT, UK and 2 IT ) with a solid experience in EU programs and coming from countries with different culture and approach to the migrant support and inclusion, in order to enhance the comparison and the search of good practices to be standardized and disseminated. The management will be shared among the partnership; each partner will lead one IO and will organize one multiplier event; Antares will coordinate the whole process, P2 will coordinate the dissemination & impact activities, P3 the Quality system of the project; P4 the sustainability strategy; P5 the partnership communication and P6 the results evaluation. A strong and diversified dissemination strategy will be secured along the project life span with the explicit aim to involve a number as larger as possible of LEI products potential users in order to get a suitable impact at local, national and European level. The longer term sustainability of the LEI project and its resources will be secured through a dedicated web site which will continue at least two years after the project funding period has ended. All the partners will be engaged to disseminate for free the LEI products in their environment for that period.
