Objectives

- Provide the management and teaching staff of San Xerome with the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to launch a project of change and transformation of the Center, which allows us to go from being a Center for Special Education to being a Resource Center for education inclusive. Specifically, the project has not allowed: - Know two realities of excellence at European level in inclusive education, and the steps they have taken to get where they are and be what they are. The third planned has not been possible due to the covid-19 crisis. - Establish alliances with related European entities, to develop joint projects.

Background

Our current educational system is experiencing a crucial change regarding to inclusive education policies. The UN convention on the rights of persons with disabilities implies substantial changes in the educational system, in favor of an inclusive education that our Government is trying to promote. Said changes will imply, in a short period of time, the transfer of all students with intellectual diversity from special education centers to ordinary school classrooms, which entails the possible disappearance of special education centers like ours. We need to react, anticipate and be prepared to assume a new role in this context, as agents of transformation and change, becoming a Resource Center that provides advice and support to the ordinary school to guarantee that the attention, well-being and development of students with diversity present in their classrooms is optimal, inclusive and inclusive.
