The objective of the project is to increase the quality of educational services and prevent, reduce early school leaving by children at educational risk by creating opportunities and increasing the participation of teaching staff from 13 schools in Dambovita county, as well as members of management teams, in continuous training programs, for the development of teaching and professional competences, activities such as teaching mentoring, prceum and exchange of good practices. By improving the competencies of the teaching staff in the pre-university education in Dambovita county, by promoting quality educational services and adapted to European standards, oriented to students’ needs, we aim to develop the quality of education and equitable access to it.

The project’s activities are aimed at attracting and/or maintaining in target schools qualified, competent and motivated staff in order to provide quality education geared to students’ needs. The project also aims to improve the educational performance of children in target schools, as well as to increase the school attendance rate of children at educational risk.
