The Priority Intervention Educational Territories Program (TEIP), which began in 1996 and is currently in its fourth generation, is an educational policy measure that aims to ensure social inclusion and educational success, improve the quality of learning, and combat school dropout rates. This program is intended for school clusters and non-clustered schools located in territories with a high number of children and young people at risk of social vulnerability. (Despacho No. 7798/2023)
Since 2013, CIS-Iscte has been developing a scientific consulting and research support project with TEIP school clusters and non-clustered schools.
This project consists of a multidisciplinary team of experts who promote systematic, regular, and close monitoring of each of the school clusters that make up its network. This monitoring provides opportunities for critical reflection and access to resources that contribute to the successful implementation of these clusters' Action Plans, as well as their monitoring and evaluation.
The project is also characterized by its focus on creating opportunities for training and exchange of experiences, thus contributing to increasing opportunities for synergy and collaborative work between TEIP school clusters.
As part of the scientific consulting and research support provided by this team, at the beginning of each school year, an action plan is drawn up with the management and TEIP coordination of each school cluster, which may include:
• Consulting for middle management, teaching teams, and/or specialized senior technicians
• Supervision of strategic actions
• Support in defining impact assessment plans for specific projects selected by the school cluster
• Design and promotion of continuing education actions
• Support in organizing or participating in seminars/meetings for debate and dissemination of practices, promoted by the school group
• Participation in meetings with the monitoring team of the Directorate-General for Education or with other partners with an active role in the development of the TEIP Action Plan4
