"The project ""School of Children - School of Families"" was an effective tool to: 1. reduce school absenteeism. 2. Address situations of disadvantage with minors and their families through the work of the Schools of Mothers and Fathers. 3. And improve the skills of educational professionals to overcome situations of absenteeism and disadvantage. During 30 months an intense work in Network was done, and created open educational resources, which are already being references of good practices in both municipalities. The project consisted of 11 members, a heterogeneous, complementary and very well-matched group. We assumed from the first day the complexity of being 11 partners, but a posteriori the previous experience of joint work of some of the members in European projects and the attitude of commitment and enthusiasm shown by all the partners was the key to the success of EdF. The project was developed in the industrial cities of Fuenlabrada and Fermo, and continuously in 4 educational centers with a high percentage of students at risk of social exclusion. The project involved 236 teachers from the 2 countries and 753 students. Twenty-two artists and 277 technicians from educational administrations, educational representatives, volunteers and university interns collaborated. The key of the project was the joint work with the minors, their families (about 337 people) and with the community in general. 4,632 direct and indirect beneficiaries participated. The open educational resources that will serve to implement the project in other centers were developed and a WEB page http: //erasmusplus-fuenlabrada-fermo.eu/ was developed for dissemination. The guiding thread for addressing the objectives of the work was materialized in the production of short films about the memory, the present and the future of children and their families (dance, music and theater shows, exhibitions ...), a space for exchange based on research about our realities on a personal and cultural level (traditions, stories, interculturality, other capacities ...) The final products were done by the children themselves.Each municipality held 2 transnational meetings (we held 2 additional coordination meetings) that involved 55 mobilities (11 more than those subsidized by the project). All the partners attended, and we were able to know in situ the differentiated and specific good practices of each partner. These meetings were attended by partners and representatives of the educational communities of each municipality.The project included 6 state trainings. The trained people will revert their learning to the community in exchange.The project includes a start, process and final evaluation work, and an external evaluation report.Differentiating element of the work carried out was developed in a high percentage during school hours, working with the entire educational community as an element of normalization. EdF has been a practical and participatory program in which we have not concentrated on the work in theoretical contents but the internalization of them and their implementation in order to facilitate social cohesion, reducing absenteeism and improving motivation for student learning.EdF had 22 artists who showed other views of reality.The results obtained were:01 We created a permanent collaborative NETWORK over time to improve teachers professional competences, through the development of a socio-educational intervention methodology based on art and the development of emotional intelligence.02 We train 236 teachers from 2 countries, who now know and participate in the project and exchange previous experiences.03 We created schools for Mothers and Fathers in both municipalities (in Fermo the process has been slower due to complexities beyond the control of the Comune) Families become co-trainers in different areas: establishment of guidelines and limits, use of technologies, and address cultural and generational diversity.04 753 students improved their skills, their motivation for learning and social cohesion.05 We elaborated materials that allow the improvement of national methodologies. 1- Methodological documents 2- Evaluation model 3- Good practices DVD.06 Absenteeism, learning problems and des-motivation levels were reduced.07 A website was created to disseminate the work carried out.08 We trained 22 artists in the field of education, as well as volunteers and interns09 We work with the community, from a gender, intercultural, equity and citizenship perspective.10 We disseminated the project among the educational administrations of both municipalities and other municipalities.11 The participants are satisfied with the training and exchange received (see evaluation)"
