Over the first two years of the new Erasmus + program, few Parisian vocational schools benefited from such mobility opportunities. A recent assessment of international school pairings in the Académie shows 10 times less pairings in vocational schools than in other schools. Although these pairings do not necessarily lead to mobilities, it shows how difficult it is for vocational schools to work on European projects. Educators told us they find it hard to include Erasmus + projects in their practice.Many students still choose vocational studies because they dislike studies or they lack a professional project not because they are motivated. These studies therefore suffer from a poor reputation and are not attractive. Besides there is a high level of truancy, a high drop-out rate. Most students come from deprived families with little to no access to mobility and few students are motivated to go on to higher education. As teaching is challenging in these schools, teachers are used to working in teams on interdisciplinary projects to give the opportunity to students to succeed.These teams are innovative and highly motivated by Erasmus + projects but the level of technicality and availability necessary to prepare a candidacy, administrative aspects of the project makes it harder for them to start such projects. Besides some teams who have already applied for a grant, with the amount of work it represents, have been sorely disappointed not to be able to go on with their project as they were rejected, which sometimes leads to a lot of frustration.Project CAPMOB-EFP by Académie Paris aims at boosting vocational schools’ European mobilities, giving them a structure, expertise and a network. Thus, 15 vocational schools in Catering and hospitality, customer services, fashion and design, business and industry have joined the consortium.This project aims at forming a local and European network for a better use of resources for students to succeed, for an easier and more diversified access to mobility. It will develop staff’s ability to start and lead European projects successfully. New tools will be created to assess mobility. Cooperation with European partners will be developed building a true European citizenship and awareness of cultural diversity will be raised. All of this will allow a successful path towards higher education.
