Heading Towards a Plurilingual Education for All
Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Aug 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

"Heading Towards a Plurilingual Education for All" aims to bring about a better educational opportunity in Escola Túrbula for disadvantaged and diverse students from the Sant Adrià de Besòs area. Having a plurilingual school in such an urban area is so beneficial to the livelihoods of the youth as it opens the door to better opportunities to their future. We hope to make three visits to schools in Finland, The Netherlands and Ireland with the hopes of gaining knowledge of different teaching approaches so as to incorporate them into our school and eventually to the surrounding schools and universities. We hope to also share our ways of teaching to each school that we visit. We would like to send nine teachers in total (three from Preschool, three from Primary and three from Secondary), one teacher from each level will travel to one target country. Activities which we hope to achieve whilst on these trips are: - observation (CLIL lessons taught through English, tandem teaching, the incorporation of two languages e.g. English and Irish)- identifying strategies and methodologies of different skills - observe how special needs students and newcomers are integrated into the school and how they are taught- sharing the practices that we have learnt along the wayParticipants after completing this job-shadowing project will be able to:- expand and improve their methodological skills- gain the resources needed to reflect upon and improve their classroom strategies- improve their linguistic competence in English- be more equipped when dealing with newcomers and special needs studentsWe hope to benefit from this job-shadowing project by being able to accommodate better for our students' needs and help the local schools network and higher educational institutions to learn from our experiences from visiting our three partner schools.
