Project Description

ST BANK is a project aimed at promoting entrepreneurial education in secondary schools in order to increase school engagement especially in those areas which show a high percentage of ethnic minorities and foreign-born residents that have a higher tendency to leave prematurely education. Therefore, the objective is to empower teachers with the innovative learning contents and tools to diminish school drop-outs and increase school engagement. The project addresses the EU2020 target of reducing the rates of early school leavers below 10%, focusing on the “Education and Training 2020” (ET2020) challenges in terms of: 1) improving the quality and efficiency of education and training; 2) promoting equity, social cohesion and active citizenship; 3) enhancing creativity and innovation, including entrepreneurship, at all levels of education and training.
