The ASPIRE4R project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme, has reached a significant milestone in its mission to foster inclusion and strengthen peer-to-peer support within vocational and professional schools. Over recent months, the initiative has transformed research, best practices, and direct engagement with schools and students into a structured model that addresses academic, social, and emotional needs in an integrated way.
This press release outlines the key features of the six-stage support model, now active in partner schools, and highlights the impact it is already generating — from improved student engagement to stronger school communities. It also announces the Final Conference on 19 September 2025, a unique opportunity to share results, exchange perspectives, and discuss future pathways for expanding the model across Europe.
ASPIRE4R is more than a project: it is a collective commitment to building schools where every student feels supported, included, and empowered to succeed.
