​

Our Erasmus Project will involve or pupils researching about three important issues:

Year One – European History.

• How Europe changed during the 20th Century.

• How World War Two affected our countries.

• Why immigration took place during World War Two (for example, Jewish refugees).

Year Two – Modern Day Immigration.

• How conflict can result in migration (for example, Syrian refugees)

• How our localities have been affected by immigration. What are the important aspects and benefits of immigration.

• How refugee children’s lives compare to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Year Three – Environmental Change in Europe.

• What can we do to look after our local and global environments.

• Study important European and World environmental issues.

Pupils from all schools will collaborate on various end-products for the project.

At the end of Year One the pupils will focus on the creation of an inter-school Peace Charter. The end-product for Year Two will be the creation of School Welcome Booklets that will be distributed to new pupils, including refugee and migrant pupils. In Year Three a collaborative environmental magazine will be produced.

Throughout the project school will share good practice in teaching and learning.

During Year One there will be a focus on numeracy. The Polish school will take a lead role in sharing how ICT can be used effectively in the teaching of numeracy.

During Year Two, the Greek school will take a lead role in sharing effective strategies for teaching refugee children and immigrant pupils.

During Year Three, the Spanish school will lead on the scientific approach to teaching.
