More and more active learning methods are used in lessons. • Increasing knowledge in the chosen subject area - geography, art education, English language.

Background

Saku Gymnasium is a rapidly growing and developing school. At the time of submitting the project application in 2019, the number of students was 1365 and the school employed 102 teachers. There are many good teachers working at the school who are focused on professional development. The goal of the school is to support teachers and, more broadly, to bring new thoughts and ideas to the school, which can be used in everyday teaching. Teachers have had the opportunity to participate in the Erasmus K1 project for several years. Teachers' interest in the project has increased every year. The reason for this is continuity and very positive feedback from the teachers who participated in the project. Many new experiences have been brought to our school thanks to the projects. The teachers who participated in the projects have shared their knowledge and skills with their colleagues In each school year, the goals of the school year are set in the school's general work plan. In the year of application, the emphasis was on how to increase the professionalism of the teacher in his subject area, how to deal with school bullying. We wanted to continue the international cooperation between schools both at the level of students and teachers.
