Na poziv Učiteljskog fakulteta Sveučilišta u Zagrebu, IV. osnovna školu Varaždin uključit će se u projekt Lifelong Learning Programme Comenius „A Resilience Curriculum for Early and Primary Schools in Europe (RESCUR)“. RESCUR je trogodišnji LLP Comenius project (2012-2015) čiji je glavni koordinator Sveučilište na Malti, a sudjeluje još 5 europskih sveučilišta.

Cilj projekta je razvoj kurikula otpornosti za djecu predškolske i osnovnoškolske dobi u Europi putem međukulturalne i međunarodne suradnje, koristeći izvore i iskustvo različitih sudionika. Projekt se provodi od 2013. godine i do sada je napisana radna verzija priručnika koji sadrži aktivnosti za razvoj otpornosti djece koje su podijeljene u 6 međusobno povezanih cjelina:

1. Pozitivna mentalna orijentacija
2. Osnaživanje
3. Samoodređenje
4. Unapređivanje komunikacijskih osobina
5. Izgradnja stabilnih odnosa
6. Pretvaranje izazova u prilike

Učiteljski fakultet zadužen je za razvoj aktivnosti koje se odnose na unapređivanje komunikacijskih vještina. S ciljem razvijanja kvalitetnog priručnika, pilot-projektom koji će se provoditi na IV. OŠ će se provjeriti ostvaruju li se predviđenim aktivnostima očekivani ciljevi i ishodi učenja te jesu li one napisane na način koji je prihvatljiv učiteljima te samoj djeci.

Edukacija za uključene učiteljice od 1. do 4. razreda provest će se u petak, 14. studenog.
