CONTRA EL PARO JUVENIL: ERASMUS+
Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Project context : The town of Canals is going through a clear deterioration of their business sector. The main local companies, Ferrys SA, SA Rodrigo Sancho, INPELSA, … have ceased providing stable employment for local residents. The textile and leather tanning industries no longer provide jobs and all those people who used to be employed in this sector are now suffering the consequences of unemployment. Many of them return to school and resume their studies while others are enrolled in the “Administrative Management” Training Course, which is the purpose of this Erasmus + project. The lack of current alternatives to joblessness is the reason that has driven this proposal. Number and type of participants: On the one hand, this proposal has affected four students of our Administrative Management training course. Moreover, it has also concerned one of the teachers in the department of the Vocational Branch of Administration and Management in this school. Partners involved: The quality partner in this project has been LP Notre Dame de Castres (France). It is a privately-contracted establishment with extensive experience in Training and Management of workplace training by providing, inter alia, contacts with the rest of Partner Enterprises where students will later perform the module of Training at the Workplace. All with the security offered by teamwork, which has been carried out within the often mentioned Leonardo Project up until the present. The Lycée Professionnel Golf Hôtel de Hyères (France) has provided contacts and associated logistics to address teacher training, since they are working in the area of foreign languages in collaboration with the other institutions; they also know the CLIL methodology and the rest of the new methodologies in order to deal with the learning of these languages. Finally, they have provided too, contacts with Partner Enterprises in order to make the module of Training at the Workplace. Description of activities: Within the period of the project, there have been two flows of students mobilities with four weeks of practice at a company. On the other hand, it has completed the training in the form of Job Shadowing. One of our teachers, Anna Pla, has been trained in the CLIL methodology for subsequent teaching in English of non-language subjects. Achieved results: All students have passed their assessment at the enterprise, this has caused the partial recognition of the module “Training at Workplace”, with corresponding hours worked. Furthermore, a Europass, a certificate from each enterprise, as well as a certificate from our school “IES Francesc Gil” attesting stays has been provided. As regards the training of teachers, at this moment (school year 2015/2016), two subjects, "Operaciones Administrativas de Compraventa" and "Ámbito Científico-Matemático", are teaching in English. Long-term benefits: -The differentiation of “IES Francesc Gil” , as opposed to other schools in the area offering teachings of the same professional branch, as to the quality of its vocational training. -Dynamic element to address, in future, participation in other European projects. -Encouraging participation of different social actors of our region involved in issues of Youth and Employment (from the Town Council, which already is a host partner of French students in the Leonardo project, to trade unions and NGO's operating in the territory). -Integrating element with the rest of the educational community. This project unites the wills of parents of the students, the students themselves and public authorities involved. -Dynamic element of the relationships between the School Management Team and the teachers participating in the project . It is clear that participation in this project will strengthen the partnerships between all actors involved.
