HeartDay
SUPPORT FOR TEACHERS - INCLUSION OF DISADVANTAGED PUPILS
The HeartDay project focuses on strengthening the practical skills of primary school teachers to work with pupils with special educational needs (especially pupils from different cultural backgrounds). The purpose of the project is to provide teachers with long-term support for the inclusion of these children in education.
Project activities
Support for teachers consists of several activities to strengthen their practical skills and theoretical knowledge for inclusion in the classroom environment.




HeartDays
A one-day morning programme of physical and educational activities aimed at deepening relationships and cooperation between disadvantaged groups of pupils and their classmates.
Support from experts
Long-term monitoring of the involved schools and related support of experts (psychologist, special educator) in dealing with situations related to the inclusion of disadvantaged pupils.
Seminars and workshops
Theoretical seminars and practical workshops led by representatives of Norwegian partner schools on the integration of different cultural groups of pupils into education.
Interactive programmes
Preparatory practical workshops for the class and the teacher led by a partner from Association D focused on the inclusion of disadvantaged groups of pupils into the collective.
Benefit for schools
