Products

One of the main products of this project – though it is not physical one – is the change that project partners hope to see in their students and community. It is the will to inspire and to do things, growth minset that is based on self-confidence, expertise, creativity and motivation. Building entrepreneurial aspirations and networks to fulfill them is also a great part of the expected results – both among students, inside participating schools and, hopefully, in schools that express will to implement mentoring programme by themselves, as well as inside local community and business community.

Of course, some additional channels of dissemination and materials published via them, will also be considered as a part of results – social media, eTwinning, TwinSpace and other virtual workspace that will help share idea of this project.

But the greates and the most valuable product of this project – especially for schools outside this project – will be digital manual on building Mentoring Programme. The manual will cover four main phases of programme implementation:

  1. Working in a Mentoring Programme – history, experiences and definitions
  2. Setting the rules of a local Mentoring Programme; adept, mentor and the different roles
  3. Recruiting mentors – matching with adepts; how do we do that?
  4. The Mentoring Programme – in work

Aside from describing these phases, there will be some additional details about project in general. Also, each school will contribute with information regarding their entrepreneurial and local business climate which will be specially helpful for other schools from the same area since it will help them not only to implement mentoring programme, but to understand why they need it and how it can help build better future to their students.

Mentoring Manual

During the project, we documented each students’ exchange, meaning, we documented conclusions of each stage of implementing Mentoring Programme in partnering schools. Every country had its own bigger or smaller obstacles, though everyone shared mayor one – COVID-19 global epidemics. Nevertheless, these schools managed to conduct their own mentoring programs in the second year of the project – just like it was planned – with hopes that it will continue in future.

If you want to find out more about what is actually mentoring programme, how students, teachers and mentors perceive it, how to build it and what might be weak points to take care about during the implementation, take a peak in Mentoring Manual which sums up complete experience of taking part in this Erasmus+ project, as well as in building internal mentoring networks. Feel free to download the Manual and share it with your colleagues – we hope that it will inspire you to offer this kind of program to your students in order to help them have the better future and fulfilled lives.

Mentoring program in each school

Until the end of the project, each partnering school had to implement the mentoring program in their school according to their abilities and students’ interest. One of the obligatory tasks was creation of the movies which sums up how it went and what were the experiences at the end of the period of project’s duration. This is how it went:

Bulgaria

Croatia

Italy

Sweden
