Mobile social work in Pazardjik as part of the campaign "Promotion of education"

On 08.11.2010 in the CSSCF in Pazardjik started mobile social work related to the campaign "Promotion of Education".

The Complex asked the Municipality of Pazardjik to provide a list of the children from the region that are legally required to attend school during the school year 2010/2011 but there is a risk for them to drop out of school. Social workers from two sectors of the Complex are involved in the mobile social work. According to the preliminary schedule the social workers need to cover the villages in the Municipality of Pazardjik and to assess the risk for the children to drop out of the school system.

During the week were held meetings with the governing structures of the Secondary School "Stefan Zahariev" in Pazardjik, the Central Kindergarten "Varbitsa" in Pazardjik, the Secondary School "St.St. Kiril and Methodius" in the village of Ivailo, and the Central Kindergarten "Detelina" in the village of Chernogorovo in order to obtain the addresses of the children. As a result visits of these addresses were organized where the social workers talked to the parents of the children or to their relatives and neighbours regarding current information about whether the child goes to school, and if not what are the reasons for that, and thus assessed the risk for the child to drop out of the school system. The mobile social work will continue throughout the whole of November.
