Pedagogical handout for prison/NGO staff for the assessment of key competencies of inmates

The project partners have developed pedagogical observation sheets for correctional staff and employees of associated NGOs to enable them to assess the social skills of inmates. The observation sheets are specially adapted to the requirements of a correctional facility.

The extent to which prisoners' social skills are developed can be observed primarily during sports activities within a correctional facility. The observation sheets can be used especially for group sports in prisons, but also for other activities in which the social skills of the group are important.

The project partners trained the correctional staff and employees of the associated NGOs in the correct handling and understanding of the pedagogical observation sheets prior to using the observation sheets. The training included, among other things, the criteria for the fair assignment of school grades and how to apply them.
