Context of the project.Since more than twenty years, researchers who have joined the Federal Research Structure specialized in Apprenticeship, Training and Education (SFR-AEF Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées ÉSPÉ / Université Jean Jaurès, bringing together 257 researchers from 20 laboratories, 5 partners and the Rectorate), have been conducting research (in particular) on school refusal, school phobia, school failure, absenteeism, school dropout and quality of life in schools. This research involves thousands of students, their teachers, non-teaching staff in schools, parents, but also people from local authorities and partner associations in schools. The experiments conducted, from kindergarten to high school, are numerous and generally effective.Objectives.In light of the many results obtained previously, the objective of this project is twofold: to produce a database on quality of life in schools and dropping out, as well as to produce software to assist in the diagnosis of pre-drop-out and to improve the quality of school life.Participating organizations.Within the framework of this project, 21 participants benefited from this co-financing by ERASMUS+: Estonia: 1 university, 1 school, 1 college, 1 high school; France: 1 university, 1 foundation, 1 company, 1 school, 2 colleges and 3 high schools; Romania: 2 universities, 3 colleges, 2 high schools. But 35 collaborations have been set up: England (7 institutions); Chile (7); Scotland (2); Canada (4)...Description of the main activities.The design and implementation of the databases (prod. O2) and the software (prod. O1) required a large number of activities, including:- the realization of two specifications (software and EEPLD platform);- the development of data collection tools in the five project languages on a dedicated server;- an illustrated version of data collection for non-readers;- the supply of the platform training module with synchronous and asynchronous training;- research on the management of schools;- a documentary survey module and a communication module;- the development of tools to help identify the factors that influence different types of school drop-outs and those that improve the quality of life in the school environment.- the obligation to produce a thesaurus and a vademecum on good practices in combating early drop out and improving the quality of life in the school environment (for software).Results and impacts achieved.We have far surpassed our objectives and expectations. The productions are in high demand and are the subject of presentations in conferences (dyads field actors & researchers). The CNSECO (Conseil national d'évaluation du système scolaire) indicated in December 2017 that it was important to create software that corresponds to the one we have produced here, we informed this organization and proposed a presentation of all the results of this ERASMUS+ project.Long-term benefits.The major impact obviously concerns the pupils for whom we do everything possible to limit the risks of dropping out and improve their quality of life in the school. Teachers also benefit very directly as we also develop strategies to improve their quality of professional life, such as that of non-teachers. It is undeniable that the students of the participating schools will benefit from the efforts made to motivate them and re-mobilize them if necessary.The Directors of schools and teachers who participate in this project (but also those who will benefit from it later) will benefit from training, better knowledge and awareness of the phenomenon. They will also have tools that do not yet exist, which will be a major asset in managing the establishment.In addition to training, teachers will then have the opportunity to transform their practices and use tools to limit the risks of dropping out and improve the quality of their students' learning.Transnational exchanges have enabled us to share/develop/adapt practices that are rarely disseminated and yet have sometimes surprising results.Let us not forget the parents who benefit directly from this work and who systematically receive a summary document in their original language.For all those who have never had an action-research experience, this new dynamic seems very profitable to us and will certainly engage them in effective future collaborations.The continuity of this project will be ensured by a network and new tools being created.
