Exchanging ideas, good practices, educational models and experience at different levels, including European, and making long-term and effective contacts with at least 10 international partner institutions. 3. Contributing to the school teaching resources through describing at least 2 innovations and creating at least 5 teaching resources by each mobility participant, developing at least 5 interdisciplinary projects during the period of the project. 4. Popularising the project results and a positive influence on the professional competencies of 50% of the teachers in the school and improving the quality of education of about 600 students aged 10-19. Introducing European educational models, exchanging good practices with other teachers, sharing experience and results in the international partnership network and making new contacts helped our school to become internationally popular. The need of teacher training becomes a conscious permanent process which fosters the institution’s modernization. Participating in mobility activities gave opportunities and prospects of planning and implementing future projects and partnerships.
Participation in structured courses within “Teachers – creators, innovators, mediators and inspirers” mobility project corresponded to the necessity of developing key competences and providing our students with competence-based education, as well as to teachers’ needs of introducing innovative forms of teaching and learning and getting deeper knowledge about the contemporary tendencies in European education in reputable educational institutions and among colleagues, with whom they tried to find solutions to common problems. As а part of the project, we created an European School Development Plan. We have based our future vision on the development of key competencies and the provision of competency-oriented education. We planned to achieve this by improving the qualification of teachers, updating the methods and tools for assessment and introducing innovative forms of teaching and learning. We wanted to achieve this by participating in mobility and carrying out mobilities at European level. We recognized that we need additional qualification for teachers, support and motivation and a deeper understanding of current trends in European education; expanding the number and scope of innovations; better interaction between teachers to share good practices; more effective planning of interdisciplinary projects and other activities based on the application of the competence approach and developing transversal skills of students.
