Successful Futures Together

The project is innovative as it combines global citizenship with a real passion to promote learning in the core subjects and it is pupil-lead with pupils being at the heart of all decision making and part of the process. It will give pupils a real opportunity to understand their roles as active citizens through classroom activities and projects that will motivate them to learn as they will get to share these with a real audience. The project values are to inspire and motivate learners and activities carried out will influence the lives of our pupils, shaping them to be active citizens with the confidence to tackle problems and speak out without fear to ensure a better world. We have carefully planned activities to strengthen our pupils knowledge both academically and culturally, ensuring a broad variety of topics to focus on for the duration of the project.The project will focus on the theme of water and it will work on ensuring students understand the role water has in their community and the wider world and recognise their roles in eco conservation for the future, the use of the water and how water can take on different forms. Pupils will look at their cultural heritage and study artwork by local artists and share their findings with their new global friends to develop a deeper understanding of who they are. ICT is a key part of our project, we will endeavor to utilize a range of web-based learning platforms for both pupils and staff to use (e-mail, project website,Skype, Ipads, google drive) to communicate with fellow European partners. We will run monthly skype meetings to discuss progress and making decisions, ensure we are all on track with the learning objectives and communicate weekly via e-mail for the duration of the project. Pupils will also become digital learners ready for the future by developing key skills in multimedia.
