Learn about immigrants’ stories from their point of view, told in their own words.
- Read about stories of immigrant children at school, what they felt was difficult and how they were able to manage their initial difficulties (socio-economic deprivation, high concentration of immigrant children, low educational levels of parents, lack of interest in school, learning difficulties).
- Understand the role of headteachers, teachers, other school educators (social carers and psychologists) in those stories.
- Understand the role of other institutions and key people outside school that may be called upon to help students overcome the multiple barriers they may experience to full integration in school.
- Identify risk factors in these stories and propose how you would deal with them.
- Concentrate on the role of the class teacher in these stories and what you consider useful and not so useful in their approach to immigrant children.
