According to a survey conducted by the European Union countries in 2016, Early school-leaving rates in the countries participating in this project, as a result of the analyzes obtained, the countries with the most early school dropouts: Turkey(1.37%) Spain(2.23%) Roumain(3.17%) Portugal(4.18%) Italy(5.16%). According to the results of the strategic framework of European education and training cooperation; The Council recognizes that in 2020 the share of early school dropouts should be less than 10%. The European Union, by workşng with partner schools, to reduce school drop-out rates to less than 10%, it will contribute to the realization of the priorities in the EU 2020 Strategy. Our project will contribute to this aim. The main goal of the project is to reduce early school dropout by increasing the motivation of the target groups and adapting them to the Lifelong Learning Community. The project will focus on the interests and abilities of the students and will ensure that the students would be attached to the school and continue their education and training life. The project offers a unique opportunity for participants to gain a deep understanding and knowledge of the cultural and linguistic diversity of the European community with the fact that the students come from a wide range of social and geographical backgrounds. Thus, during the Project activities, by designing a website that will use both a variety of multimedia tools for communication, as well as supporting the project results, it will create a meaningful context for developing communication skills with people in foreign countries. This will inspire other students to have a strong synergy with partner schools and to improve their future careers. With the dissemination of the project, the project results will be an example for other educational institutions. It was aimed to reduce the early school dropout rate with this Project. Our Project, in Europe, preventative works for early school-leaving will be done to share positive outcomes with school partners. Taking into account all these project data, this project will encourage students to think about their future goals and they will be guided to improve their self-esteem and respect by different, creative activities. With the parental activities in the project, the relation between school-student-family will be strengthened. Thanks to the informing meetings for students and parents, they will be informed about the benefits of long-term training and the benefits of parent support in educational work. Comparing the students' situation in their own countries with those in other countries will increase the awareness and perspective of the students. Participants will be able to recognize to obtain a common solution to the problem of early school leaving in different cultures and will analyze their own way of life, the structure of institutions in Europe and the cultures of people in these countries. Project activities will be implemented to guide the students to determine their future goals. So, students will be able to decide on their own future. As a result, this project will have a significant impact on the different regions of Europe and will have a multiplier effect.
As planned in the application form all the activities done during the two years project have been focused on students showing lack of control, lack of self-confidence, lack of values that often discourage the weakest that after frequent unsuccesses at school, leave it.A loss of access to socialization and other events and services taking into account that the targeted ratio is 10% in European training strategy in 2020; by aiming to reduce early school dropout, to increase the academic education period of the students, to increase the innovation and quality in the field of education, we’ve purposed to encourage all students to active at European citizenship and socialization, to prevent early school dropouts by providing students with the skills and abilities to integrate.

The project offered a unique opportunity for participants to gain a deep understanding and knowledge of the cultural and linguistic diversity of the European community with the fact that the students come from a wide range of social and geographical backgrounds. During the implementation of the project, we fostered equity and inclusion in education, training, enabled learning quality for all as well to prevent drop-out and to promote the participation of disadvantaged groups in society, which is a really important and urgent issue nowadays. The responsibility of a school community was not to leave such pupils aside, but persuaded them to participate in school's life, integrated them into different activities, motivated them to learn foreign languages, travelled and discovered the other way of life. So we facilitated the transition of learners through different types of formal/non-formal education, modernization and reinforced education and training to respond to the main challenges of today's world. The project objectives were implemented in our project by organizing sustainable project activities, sharing the experience and promoting new ways of teaching and learning in non-traditional learning environments. So, during project activities, using a wide variety of multimedia tools for both communication, as well as designing a website to support the project results, created a meaningful context for developing communication skills with people in foreign countries.
