Another Prestigious Award for St Rose’s School
28 November 2008
St Rose’s Special School in Stroud has been awarded the International Schools Award.
Throughout the year, the students at St Rose’s have been encouraged to view the wider world and to consider the lives and cultures of children and young people overseas. The whole school has enjoyed the vibrancy that this dimension has brought to the curriculum. Many of the schools projects have been internationally themed.
St Rose’s has entertained visitors from partner schools in The Philippines, Germany, Lithuania and Sweden. Several students from St Rose’s enjoyed a return visit to Sweden with further visits to Germany, Lithuania and the Philippines planned for 2009.
Live video links between schools brought the learning alive while the young people have developed international friendships, communicating via email and post.
To achieve this award the school joined the British Council’s Comenius Initiative, which is part of the European Lifelong Learning Programme (LLP). This provides opportunities for schools and colleges to introduce or strengthen the European dimension in their curriculum.
