Foundations of Success
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 30 juin 2018 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

"Foundations of Success" will increase the capacity of the Department of Education and Children, Carmarthenshire, to build on notable past achievements through Comenius, refresh and modernise its approach to internationalisation, and once again enter the European stage through the auspices of the Erasmus + programme. The project will enable members of Foundation Phase teaching staff and head teachers from four of the county's rural primary schools to learn from effective practice at centres of excellence in both Italy and Iceland in adopting more creative teaching approaches and making best use of the outdoors. They will be supported to put this into practice in their own establishments by the local authority advisory team with the aim of improving engagement and participation of all Foundation Phase learners and thus raise standards of attainment. The schools concerned will also be supported to participate in etwinning to continue to engage in professional dialogue with other practitioners as well as set up projects to include their youngest pupils to develop a better understanding of and respect for diversity. These activities will lead to the schools being better prepared to meet the needs of the new curriculum to be introduced in Wales with its emphasis on international perspectives and developing learners as ethical and informed citizens of Wales and the world. It is envisaged that the schools concerned will go on to embark on KA2 strategic partnerships to further build on the results of this project and embed an international dimension across the school and curriculum. Project outcomes will be integrated into the development plans and schemes of work of the schools concerned, shared at local authority, education consortium and national level , and further exploited and sustained through the creation of a workshop that will become part and parcel of the county's professional development training offer. The project will culminate with consortium members and other stakeholders collaborating on the hosting of an international training course in Carmarthenshire open to education professionals from across Europe to share our own take on integrating creative pedagogy, use of the outdoors, and international dimension in Foundation Phase.
