During 3 short exchange, pupils socialized and collaborated with their foreign peers, finding effective ways of communicating and becoming highly motivated towards the participation they were experiencing. Many activities, always in direct connection with the partner schools, saw them involved in contributing to the success of the project. Among these, the contest for the creation of a common logo, the shared drafting of an Anthem in 5 languages, the creation of a multilingual e-Dictionary on Early School Leaving, with hypertext links to their drawings, audio, video, photos. All the activities done during the 3 years project were focused on students showing lack of control, lack of self-confidence, difficulty in finding school interest, lack of values that often discourage the weakest, that after frequent failures at school leave it forever. Through the project activities, the students were able to discover their own abilities and change their negative perception of school into a positive image of it. The aims were to find the right strategies, educational tools, methodologies to deal with those students to prevent their early school leaving. The school became a place where to increase confidence in themselves and in their own potential and not a commitment to bear. A place where to participate actively and consciously to their path of growth, where to acquire or valorise their social and communication skills, where to establish or improve the relationship with peers, teachers, parents. About 2000 participants were involved in the project and at least twice benefited of it, if we consider teachers, students, parents, other schools, experts, decision-takers at local, regional, national and transnational levels, local and national education authorities, public reached by press and social media. 4 partners in the project: Italy- Naples- the coordinator, France – Paris, Portugal- Frazão, Paços de Ferreira, Spain – Gran Canaria - Arguineguín;There were 5 Transnational Project Meetings: TPM1 in France (Paris), TPM2 in Portugal (Frazão), TPM3 in Spain (Arguineguín) and TPM4 France (Paris) and 3 Project activities: C1 - a students’ exchange in Portugal (Frazão), C2 - a students’ exchange in Italy (Naples) and C3 - a students’ exchange in France (Paris). The last TPM was held online in Italy (Naples), due to the pandemic, in 3 different steps: in May, in June, in July. The original intents of the project were all met.
