There is a shortage of qualified teachers in various professional roles in school today and will do so for some time to come. Despite this, too many leave the teaching profession due to stress and poor work environment. When employees within the school have a lack of knowledge for a safe professional practice, it creates the experience of high workload and stress, which can lead to mental illness with sick leave as a result. Various shortcomings in today's teacher education are highlighted and several believe that the lack of preparation for the professional role is one of the reasons why many teachers feel stressed and leave the profession after only a few years. Researchers believe that it would be possible to better prepare the teacher students for reality and that a good way to do that is to play role-playing games. What is specific to the participants in the project is that they work with students who for various reasons are unable to attend a regular school class, which creates an extra stressful work situation. Neuropsychiatric disabilities, social problems and criminality mean that participants' students need extended and complex support that meets their needs. Through skills-enhancing training efforts, the project will work to achieve goals such as: The experience of negative stress at work should be reduced for women and men, no women or men should choose to leave their profession, events involving threats and violence should be reduced and women and men should experience that they have gained increased competence in areas such as leadership, violence prevention and responding to students with NPF. The training activities must be preceded by a thorough mapping of the participants' needs, interests and conditions. Participants will take part in educational initiatives where drama education through role-playing games will have a prominent place. Training will be followed up with tutorials to provide the opportunity to rehearse and reflect on newly acquired knowledge in order to increase learning. Through the supply of knowledge for increased competence in the areas of leadership, violence prevention and responding to students with NPF, school staff will become safer adults in relation to young people, which provides a safer and more stable school environment for students with difficult conditions, and a better working environment for school staff that allows them to remain in their professions and creates a stability that the student group so well needs.
