EU funding for the development of teachers’ and school leaders’ competences
The project aims to improve the quality, inclusion, effectiveness, and relevance of Slovenia’s education system. As part of the project, teachers and school leaders will participate in programmes helping them overcome modern education challenges. The project will focus on the development of competences for inclusion, adjustment to social and environmental change, use of data for quality improvement, support to self-evaluation processes as well as for improved teaching processes, lifelong learning and innovative approaches to teaching.
Teachers and school leaders at all education levels, including professionals in pre-school education, teachers in primary, secondary, vocational and technical education, special education teachers, professionals working in student dorms and adult education professionals will be involved in the project as target groups.
The beneficiary of the funding will be the National Education Institute. The Institute will carry out the project by working closely together with a consortium consisting of the Institute of the Republic of Slovenia for Vocational Education and Training, the Slovenian Institute for Adult Education, the National Examination Centre and the Centre for School and Outdoor Education.
The project is worth a total of €3,500,000; €2,234,749.99 will come from the European Social Fund Plus.
