Our association runs specific actions for students in serious difficulty or dropping out. A 'bridge' programme has been set up in several towns, in partnership with teachers and school leadership teams, to help these students give new meaning to their studies and step into a positive dynamic.
A structured contract, agreed with the school
A contract may be negotiated with the school, with a possible adjustment of hours. This kind of contract is mainly negotiated for students identified as struggling. Each contract is tightly framed, with a clearly defined goal for the student. The family is involved in the contract, which must not last: it lasts long enough to bring each student back into a positive dynamic of success, whether academic or otherwise.
“Self-confidence in life is not decided, it is given to us by others and, first of all, by our parents.”
How it works
For this bridge to work, constructive working meetings are organised with the school teams. Adjusting school hours requires a relay to welcome the students concerned: the association offers themed afternoons at least three times a week, with sophrology and mental-management workshops.
