Objectives

In the short term, teachers' mobility and training abroad aimed at improving teachers' competences in specific areas, specifically the ones stated in the 'school improvement plan' (internationalisation, interculturality and sustainability) as well as encouraging and promoting innovation in didactics. What we want to achieve in the long-term is wellbeing at school for all students and successful results for the greatest majority of them by: - improving quality and foster innovation in education (inclusive, collaborative and future-oriented didactics); - sharing 'best practices' with teachers and schools from different countries; - reducing the number of early school leavers and combating failure in education; - improving students' competences in communicating in EFL; - improving students' key competences (EU awareness and citizenship, digital competences, soft skills) - empower students in order to ensure inclusive democratic participation, entrepreneurship education, intercultural awareness - promoting Agenda's 2030 goals in terms of building inclusive, peaceful and sustainable societies.

Background

Our school's goal in participating in the project was to improve teachers' competences in the following areas: - internationalisation (teaching and communicating in a foreign language, CLIL methodology, setting up teachers and schools' partnerships); - interculturality and inclusion (dealing with cultural differences, promoting inclusiveness and fighting against any form of discrimination, promoting democratic participation); - sustainability (environmental issues, climate change, sustainable societies, Agenda 2030); - digital comptences (ICT, new technologies, AI); - quality and innovation in teaching methods.
