Multicultural classroom - motivation, qualification and success

The project "Multicultural classroom - motivation, qualification and success" of the candidate Association BRTMI creates a broad partnership between an NGO and 13 educational institutions-kindergartens and schools, united to implement a set of activities aimed at improving the professional competencies of teachers, principals and other pedagogical specialists for work in a multicultural environment. The project sets specific goals, namely: analysis and assessment of the environment and preparation and/or updating of strategic documents for educational integration of children and students from ethnic minorities of the partner schools; raising the qualification of the pedagogical specialists by including them in a series of trainings for work in a multicultural environment; raising the educational outcomes of children and students educated in partner institutions by ensuring equal access to quality education for all. For a period of 32 months, 255 pedagogical specialists will participate in a series of short-term trainings for acquiring 1 to 3 qualification credits and in short-term trainings without credits for improving the efficiency of work in a multicultural environment. 5 educational mediators will also take part in the project. The training topics will be tailored to the needs of teachers and the specifics of partner institutions and will be united around one idea - to improve pedagogical interaction in a multicultural environment, with a view to equal participation of all children in the education system and increase their learning motivation. 40 pedagogical specialists will have the opportunity to acquire professional qualification degree for work in a multicultural environment. The activities, benefits and results of the project are focused on the thirteen partner schools and kindergartens, most of which are located in small settlements, and which educate a significant number of children and students for whom Bulgarian is not their mother tongue.
