Objectives

The primary focus was on expanding foreign language skills in Spanish and French. School mobilities are regularly held in both countries. In addition, there was the expansion of knowledge in intercultural management in Malta, as a sort of entry into the Erasmus world.

Background

Specifically, the following needs arose as part of our internationalization strategy: a) Some colleagues without English teaching qualifications were interested in participating in ongoing international projects or even in initiating them themselves, but were hesitant to do so Assuming that their existing language skills are not sufficient, a concern that often could not be resolved despite attempts to convince them otherwise b) The teachers who accompanied our student mobility to Spain and France had no or only rudimentary knowledge of Spanish, which often led to uncertainty in planning and to dependence on the local partners when implementing the measure
