The aim of the project is to analyze the problems of training in vocational schools with regard to students and their motivation to study, which in many cases is very low for several reasons. 1st - students generally have low motivation and engagement to study, 2nd - they are coming from socially disadvantaged families and often from excluded communities, 3rd - some students are coming from minority groups and from immigrant families whom may not be aware of opportunities available. This situation needs to be addressed by creating a system for the preparation of future teachers and teachers of these schools in order to enable young teachers (graduates of pedagogical faculties) to be prepared not only as teachers of vocational subjects but also as pedagogical and social counselors who are able to motivate students to participate in the study and to protect them from unfinished studies. In order to achieve these results, it is necessary to know the situation in schools and that is why all types of educational institutions (trans-sectoral) are involved in the project. This requires systematic preparation of teachers and trainers for apprenticeships. Vocational education is the most endangered category, as it does not give many opportunities to take part in education at another school when leaving vocational school before graduation. That is the reason why this project will deal in particular with the working activities of teachers in these educational establishments.The entire consortium consists of partners who have the necessary experience in project activities. Educa International as the project applicant has dealt with this issue in 3 projects (Erasmus, European Structure Fund Project). The school in Malmö (Sweden), participated in a joint project with Educa International in 2012-2015 and both institutions still continue to work together. Vocational school in Sezimovo Ústí (CZ) implements a drop-outs support programme and has excellent experiences and very good results from this work, which will be used for the objectives of this project. The Slovak partner is very interested in drop-out prevention, too. Austrian partner has a lot of practical and theoretical knowledge to support the project.Dissemination activities will be targeted at all training centers, vocational schools in participating countries and also in the other countries of the EU. The aim of the project team is a stronger influence in new EU countries who joined the EU in 2004 or later due missing the big EU pilot project Second Chance School realized in EU countries in the period between 1997-2000. The new EU countries have not benefitted form the project and drop-out prevention system is not developped. Therefore, the interest is to target dissemination activities mainly at Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Macedonia and Serbia. It is important to promote the project results not only in schools, but also in regional offices, Ministries of Education and other stakeholders.
