Conclusion: general reflections on SHARMED as innovative pedagogy

This chapter reflects on the three years project and its contribution to education practice in general and to innovation in educational pedagogy more specifically. This chapter charts a non-linear exploration of findings and conclusions and draws comparisons from the three countries to reflect on the achievement of objectives. This chapter recognises the contribution of participants, teachers and children, in the evaluation and reflection exercise and defines value based on the benefits to children from migrant backgrounds as well as children native to the country, teachers and those who became SHARMED facilitators. This chapter finally reflects on contributions to educational policy and practice and seeks to guide the reader to the potential for replicating SHARMED-like projects in the future.
