Early school leaving is a problem faced by the European countries in the 21st century with a major impact upon societies from all the European countries that is the reason why the European Commission has as a target the reduction of ESL to less than 10% by 2020 for education and training, following a previous policy from 2003 that aimed the reduction to 10% by 2010. Social exclusion, insufficient awareness of educational disadvantage, learning problems, and poverty and school curricula are some of the factors that lead to abandon education prematurely. So as to support the disadvantaged children from 4 schools from Romania, Turkey, Italy, and Portugal decided to work together. According to The Education and Training Monitor statistics the latest rates of ESL in the partner countries are: RO 19%, POR 15%, IT 14%, TR 35%, The SWOT analysis from all partner schools shows some common problems: the tendency for ESL increased compared to the previous years (, IT 7%, TR 11%, POR 8%, RO12%), lack of students’ motivation .The main needs to be addressed through this partnership are: foster social inclusion, facilitate the access, and improve quality of education. The election of the project topic was chosen from the necessity coming from improving the school’s curricula by finding an optim and innovative way far from the educational stereotypes. Thinking to a sustainable training of pupils, thinking to social exclusion and to the threats of disadvantaged areas, and to the more and poorer skills communication we have chosen to appeal to rebirth of traditions as an educational bound between cultures. These were the ideas which led us to select out project partners: Turkey, Italy and Portugal. Being aware of the importance of united and educated Europe we elected to have the next objectives for our project: -to promote traditions among children -to make children be aware of their own culture and customs -to consolidate by promotion the cultural and unique parameters of each country, social cohesion, active citizenship, intercultural dialogue and fulfillment of children - to be aware of the roots of their own culture and in the same time they will see the similarities between the traditions of each country involved in the project. -to promote language learning and linguistic diversity - to improve education by creativeness -to prevent early school leaving -to make the target group be aware of being European citizens We thought to select 30 disadvantaged children from each country in order to get a improvement in their personal and educational development by learning through traditions and inheritance. The activities of the project are meant to develop their social skills, their interest in learning, their social inclusion teaching them that are more than they are country’s citizen but better they are European citizens. Becoming aware of their roots in workshops, attending courses of folklore and English language, participating to fairs, transnational meetings, training activities, being proud of their traditional handmade products students from the target group and the other added students will have the chance of escaping ESL and be socially integrated. The teachers involved in the project activities will have the opportunity to develop their educational career and to find a new way of lifelong learning. The partners from community, the parents, the stakeholders altogether with the social media channels and mass-media will discover the importance of national and European cultural inheritance as a mean for becoming stronger, active European citizens. The materials and the results of the projects will be available as educational staff, local regional, national and international communities, relevant NGO-s, parents and hopefully decision makers in school policy. We strongly believe that the workshops activities from this project could be a good start for a future job for small entrepreneurs trained in traditional hand made products, especially for disadvantaged areas
