The grant application and the results foreseen by us are clearly positioned in the specific, operational and broader objectives of the Lifelong Learning Programme and in particular within ICT Key Activity 3.

The objectives are clear, realistic and address a relevant issue or target group - a group at risk of exclusion, the 14-21 age group.

One of the Priority areas of the Call for Proposals is particularly addressed - Priority 1 "Identifying and implementing innovative uses of ICT for lifelong learning, in particular for groups at risk of exclusion" - with our focus on the 14-21 age group when the risk of exclusion is highest and the long-term effects of exclusion most serious. The specific sub-Priority addressed is the second - "to develop comparative analyses of existing practice to identify transferable good practice and success factors" - in fact this is exactly our overall objective with respect to the 14-21 age group.

The project is Transversal in that it covers School Education (Comenius) and also Vocational Education and Training (Leonardo) It does overlap also with Higher Education (Erasmus) since university-level courses delivered in school via ICT are in scope. The overall thematic approach is lifelong learning and in particular the project also looks at informal education out of school or college that is delivered to the 14-21 group via ICT via "notschools" and home-school links.
