I am the headmaster of a 10th grade school, where, in addition to teaching, we offer young people from 13 years a lot of leisure activities in collaboration with a lot of different organizations.
Furthermore we have various school offers for young people who cannot attend regular school. They find it very difficult to get to school, and often they struggle with major personal and social problems.
I am very much looking forward to meeting, networking and talking to you all about experiences from your countries in relation to keeping young people in different school forms, preventing them of dropping  out.

I'm coordinating three workshops for young NEET's  where the participants can develop their artistic and manual skills and talents using used materials to create new products.

In order to consolidate and improve our offer of workshops and the supervision of young people likely to drop out of school, it is important for me to learn about the youth transition programs in force in the various European countries and especially in the different countries. Scandinavians.

I work as a teacher for children with special needs, situated in Ždaňa in the Eastern part of Slovakia. The school is equipped for 150 pupils, mainly from disadvantaged social backgrounds (98 percent from all the students comes from Roma community) and environments. The whole school complex includes a primary school (age 6-16), practical school for young people (age 16-18), and kindergarden.
One of our biggest problem is „earlier school leaving“, specially for kids from roma settlements.

...and What we are looking for?
