As the only Lippe based vocational college within North Rhine-Westphalia afforded European School status, our college strives to enable our students to experience a wide variety of diverse European projects. Accordingly, to maintain and support this goal, we find it essential to encourage, provide and support ongoing learning opportunities for our teaching staff to acquire and expand their own knowledge of what’s new and modern, not just nationally but Europe wide. We seek to involve 6 enthusiastic teachers, tasked with different areas of responsibilities within our college (teachers, officials, school management team) and we anticipate the results of their productive training will subsequently be disseminated throughout their peers, further enticing other colleagues to reach their own potential by undertaking their own courses. Eventually, such skills are transferred into valuable teaching practices and materials which ultimately benefit our students. Through their attendance at positive events such as workshops, job shadowing, teaching at our partner schools, and / or participation in international contact seminars, our teachers receive constructive support in the development and expansion of their own international skills. Naturally, not only does our college’s own worthwhile network of international contacts continue to grow and strengthen, our ventures attract newly qualified teachers to embrace our college, whilst giving both our current and future students the ability to better evaluate their learning and career path when attending or applying to the HNASE-Berufskolleg. By providing such important EU events, we therefore both energize and motivate our current staff and students, whilst motivating new staff and students towards the HANSE for their own EU pathway in their future.
