School stories

An interactive workshop on how to write European took place at the International School during the last week of winter break. The training was held by the representatives of the , Nina Stojanovi膰 and Aleksandra Borovi膰. At the workshop, teachers learnt how to develop project ideas, analyse project problems using the problem tree method, and define project goals.

A segment of the workshop was dedicated to coming up with training topics which International School teachers can offer their colleagues from other countries. In addition, a task force was formed aimed at designing training programmes in the upcoming period.

What is the Erasmus+ programme?

Erasmus+ is an EU funding programme designed to support activities in the fields of education, training, youth and sport. The programme鈥檚 main goal is to support the strategy of creating jobs and promoting social equality and inclusion, while following the EU strategic framework for education and student/teacher training.
Writing international projects will begin in March, with a new cycle of Erasmus+ projects. The programme enables International School teachers to enhance their language competencies, create innovative teaching materials, and gain experience by working with colleagues from other countries.

Why are Erasmus+ projects an important part of International School鈥檚 education strategy?

What鈥檚 particularly important for International School students and teachers is that Erasmus+ offers numerous possibilities for enhancing one鈥檚 skills, knowledge and competencies. Through mobility programmes, our students have the opportunity to spend some time abroad in order to gain invaluable academic and social experience throughout the continent.
The exchange allows students to raise their awareness and understanding of different cultures and member states, enhance their language skills, and experience a different approach to education. In addition, they strengthen the link between formal and non-formal education through different entrepreneurial and employment-related projects.

Great feedback, unforgettable experiences, and wonderful stories from students and teachers who have been part of Erasmus+ projects are an excellent base for implementing these principles in International School lessons and projects.
