Context : Changes in school life and future society calls for changes in education and teaching. We as a school want to innovate our practices, and the international dimension is an important part of our development plan.
Background: A secondary school with 630 pupils in a suburb to Aarhus. Our school is part of the west schools in Aarhus, schools with an important percentage of immigrants. Our pupils, who are mainly ethnic Danes, continue in youth educations in schools with strong multicultural profiles.
