Through this project we aimed to strengthen inclusive education by ensuring a smoother transition for students with special educational needs (SEN) from primary to secondary school. Our main goal was to establish a strong partnership among four schools from Latvia, the Czech Republic, Italy, and Spain, allowing teachers and principals to exchange practical methods and share good practices that support SEN students and their families. As the coordinating school, Jurmala Vaivari Primary School aimed to develop solutions to long-standing challenges where inclusive primary school graduates often faced barriers to continue their education at highschools in Latvia. By collecting and disseminating successful approaches, we wanted to equip teachers with effective tools, raise awareness in local communities, and prepare recommendations to improve the system of continuity in education especially in Jurmala City. We also aimed to promote equality and non-discrimination by providing open seminars and making good practices available to the wider public. Above all, we would like to ensure that every child, regardless of disability, has access to supportive, continuous, and high-quality education beyond primary school.
