The aim of the project is - a satisfied teacher, a satisfied parent, and a satisfied pupil. We wanted to support lifelong teachers learning, to increase Maths and language competencies, discover new methods and increase our professionality. We needed to increase self-confidence of teachers who have a lot to offer by sharing their good practice - Hejny method, they also needed to have opportunity to compare their work with the work of other teachers from abroad, to compare organisation, management, communication with parents, work with special needs students or gifted students. We wanted to motivate teachers with long practice to try new methods to prevent burnout. We supported teachers and students in international cooperation, in project work in international teams, in using foreign language. We needed to increase cooperation among the schools, to see and try new teaching elements, evaluation, classification, education, organisation, planning, by using new elements in education we tried to motivate students, to make learning more enjoyable, we supported students to participate actively in learning process We needed to find new ideas in evaluation, in school organization, in modernisation of our school environment.
The needs of our organisation came from the results of the SWOT analysis, a questionnaire from parents and actual needs of the school management, teachers and pupils. We wanted to maintain good quality of education at our school, to enable the growth of pedagogical and language competencies of teachers, management, to create good teaching and learning environment. At our school we wanted to support using English language of a good quality (among teachers, school management and pupils). It was needed to improve the quality of language teaching, to motivate teachers who teach by "old-fashioned way" with new methods and ideas, to unify the attitude of the teaching staff. We saw we need to maintain the interest of parents and pupils in our school, to develop international cooperation with other schools, to support project teaching at our school and using IT technologies in lessons. The aim was also to share good practice among schools, to present Professor Hejný's method and his manipulatives in Maths and also to implement some CLIL elements in some school subjects.
