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.
