The objectives of the project were as follows: - Enhancement of language skills for teaching and non-teaching staff for a leading school on the international scene through training activities based on CLIL methodology; - Promotion of innovative and inclusive personal and professional skills of teachers for the development of more effective teaching and shared European methodologies through the enhancement of new approaches such as contextual learning, outdoor education, project-based learning, inquiry-based learning, flipped classroom, cooperative learning, and gamification - Strengthening students' soft skills, especially in terms of social skills, participation and solidarity in order to understand how to be more resilient and how to manage emotions; - Strengthening students' language-communication skills through the application of CLIL methodology to enhance not only technical language skills (grammar and written and oral expression), but also and especially cultural skills.
The institute is located in an area that insists mainly on rural realities. These realities are poorly connected and, as a result, this puts pressure on the same school educational offers, with the need to guarantee children and young people both a quality education and a wide extracurricular offer, so as to fill the weaknesses of the area and not negatively affect the children's growth opportunities. Based on the critical issues identified by the institute, different strategies have been put in place aimed at the development of activities and projects at the national and international level in an inclusive sense and based on education in mutual respect, interculturalism, solidarity and care for common goods and awareness of rights and duties along with a training plan for the staff, in which objectives and effects to spillover to students are included. The objectives set in the project aim to enhance the Institute's educational offers by placing them in a European context so as to make European values, sustainability and inclusion central issues by focusing on the development of language, digital, communication, social and multicultural skills.
