Our Erasmus+ project is called " Tomorrow's jobs : Think about your future !" The main topic is the future study choices and the future career paths. Our goal is to inform the students about the career paths they can choose. Therefore it is important to make sure they are aware of the possibility to work in another country : this Erasmus+ project will support this idea because we will get the students to go to different European countries. This project, which will take place from September 2019 to June 2021, will involve 5 schools in 5 different European countries : Collège Marie Curie in France, Commanderij College in the Netherlands, 6 Gymnasio Kavalas in Greece, Liceul Tehnologic « Sfantul Pantelimon » in Romania and Agrupamento de Escolas Marinhas do Sol in Portugal The teachers of the project will meet during the first meeting in Greece in September 2019. The goal of this meeting is to discuss and to decide the project requirements, such as the calendar, the learning activities programmes, the tools which will be used. Five learning activities will be organised, involving short-term exchanges of groups of pupils aged between 13 and 15 years old. Each learning activity will concern around 32 and 10 teachers : - in November 2019 in Romania - in March 2020 in Portugal - in October 2020 in Greece - in March 2021 in the Netherlands - in Mai 2021 in France. During this project the pupils will work on several sectors so they will discover various jobs. They will create booklets about those specific jobs such as engineer, mechanic, salesperson, nurse in order to create an european booklet promoting the 10 most hiring jobs in the year 2030. Those booklets will help them to create videos which would be visible on Twinspace. In these videos the pupils will present job interviews and stagings. The students will also have the opportunity to visit surveys and meet workers. The teachers will make sure that the gender equality is represented : that's why the input of men as well as women will be favoured in order to put an end to gender biased stereotypes. Each school will organise a job forum in order to present the different sectors and jobs the pupils have discovered during the project. When it comes to the pupils, this project will enable us to achieve a lot of objectives : - Strengthen their self-confidence - Enable them to travel and make them want to study or work in the future - Help them to have a better awareness of European citizenship - Improve their English level This project will also help us to reach some objectives for the teachers : - Guide their professional development thanks to the discovery of ther school systems - Discover new teaching methods Finally the schools will derive various benefits by being involved in this project : - Reinforce the links between the teachers thanks to team work - Offer the schools more visibility thanks to the dissemination work.
Our project is called "Tomorrow's jobs : think about your future". The theme was orientation. Our goal was to enable pupils to search for jobs which interest them and get them to think about jobs they hadn't thought of. The objective of this European project was also to give them an incentive to go in mobility during their future professional life. This project took place from September 2019 to June 2022. It has included 5 schools of different countries. : Commanderij College in the Netherlands, 6 Gymnasio Kavalas in Greece, Liceul Tehnologic « Sfantul Pantelimon » in Romania and Agrupamento de Escolas Marinhas do Sol in Portugal and our school "Collège Marie Curie" in France. We started with old jobs, and went on with current jobs per area (horeca industry, army, tourism, health, architecture, finances, IT), then we ended the project by asking pupils to think about the future of some jobs. The pupils have carried out job files and slideshows. They have been able to interview professionals, discover graduate or professional schools to follow up their studies. They became aware of the required diplomas to carry out some jobs. The project involved pupils aged between 13 and 19 by the end of the project. The mobilities involved about 25 foreign students and between 20 and 30 local pupils, as well as between 10 and 15 adults: - in November 2019 in Romania - in January 2021 in Portugal - in February 2022 in Greece - from March 28th to April 1st in the Netherlands - in May 2022 in France During these mobilities, the pupils have been able to share experiences, to become imbued with the local culture via the gastronomy, the folklore. They have been able to improve their English, and learn the vocabulary of the hosting country. They have also been able to promote their works to others and discuss with professionals and/ or try a job for a short time during the mobility. Outside these mobilities, the main tasks of the pupils consisted in doing job files, which can be consulted in a file. They have also worked on CVs and motivation letters at the end of the project and a job fair took place at the end of the year for France. This exchange has been successful. It made several pupils want to do an Erasmus+ project again or go into a European class. Some of them had never been abroad before and they have really enjoyed this mobility. Most of them have gained in autonomy and in maturity. Henceforth, some pupils understand the need for speaking English and everyone has improved their English language skills. They are our most beautiful emissaries for the projects to come and Erasmus is recognised from now on in the French middle school and around it. This first project has paved the way to other projects with various partners and has motivated other adults- not included in this project -to be involved in future exchanges. Parents have taken part in the project and have promoted it to their acquaintances.
