The main aspects which we wanted to improve were part of the European plan for development and were defined by the needs of our school. At first place was increasing of the quality of teaching and learning and the most important thing was developing useful skills for the 21st century- literacy on both mother and foreign language, usage of digital resources which motivates students and makes them more interested in the process of learning and as well makes the information more accessible. Teachers need to improve their digital skills and the pandemic situation showed it the best. That’s why at second place in our project we found important to include teachers in a special course which helped them cope up with modern technologies. The inclusive education is another crucial direction as we understand the need of more teachers to find new methods for inclusion of students which are close to dropping out and as well students with special educational needs(SED). Working with parents is very important so we concentrated our efforts in that direction as well and made them our partners in this project.
In connection with the National strategies for improving the quality of education in Bulgarian schools and increasing the qualification of teachers during the period 2014-2020, teachers from ,,20 April" Secondary School formed Pedagogical council in the beginning of 2018-2019 school year. Then was made the decision of creating a project which could help achieving stable results in teaching and learning and motivating teachers to include digital methods of educating in order to modernize the processes. This means that our school will have well-prepared teachers who will do their best in order to include modern technologies in the education process and will also help students who are about to drop out from school and be their friends. Teachers will have the parents as a main partner in the whole process. We chose the topic ,, The games as a factor of success and inclusion" because the game is an action, in which students make friends, realize their dreams and express themselves in a spontaneous way. The game is an efficient method for motivation and acquisition of knowledge in an easy way and is a good way of self-checking.
