THE PARTNERS

Our establishment is a basic municipal school established in Flénu, suburb of Mons. The school currently has over 350 students aged 2 1/2 to 12 years old. The staff are
composed of 18 full-time teachers and 6 part-time teachers. For 17 years, our establishment has been in linguistic immersion in Dutch. As a result, we
have four female teachers whose language is Dutch. Located in a former mining region for the extraction of coal, it experienced its industrial glory days
from the end of the 18th century until the years 1974 when the last mine stopped its activities. After the Second World War, a great migration took place to work in the
coal mines. Italians, Poles, Turks, Yugoslavs came to work in Belgium. The closure of the coal mines resulted in a great deal of unemployment because the country lived on its
coal industry, but nothing had been thought of for the future of the country. Today, industries have reconverted, new industries have emerged, but unemployment remains
a big problem, especially for people without a high degree. The migrant population has also evolved as, currently, many migrants have moved to
settled in our country with, for origin the Maghreb and the Democratic Republic of Congo, a former Belgian colony.                                               Since 1997, we have participated in 9 European projects, first Comenius and now Erasmus +, with great success. Meanwhile, thanks to these projects, we have acquired a great experience of the European world. We have worked with establishments in Portugal, Spain, France, Ireland, England, Italy, Austria, Norway, Latvia, Poland, Hungary, Romania, Greece, Bulgaria, North Macedonia, Cyprus, Turkey, Finland. Eight times we have been coordinator of the projects in which we were involved. The topics were diverse and very interesting for all partners, teachers, students, parents and local authorities. More and more, parents are getting involved in European projects either by welcoming pupils to their homes or by organizing small festivities in relationship with the theme of the project either by transporting students for visits or by participating in a collective meal when welcoming children from other schools. The various experiences have shown us the importance of knowing a second language, the importance of dialogue, the importance of being attentive to others. These projects also have us demonstrated the importance of the digital resources made available for contacts with partners. It is essential now that our students have the ability to use the various means of communication emanating from digital. We have introduced two digital projects in Belgium and they have both been very successful, which will allow our establishment to have new devices essential to the teaching that we wish to carry out.

Matija Gubec Primary School has been a leading Croatian school in various fields over the past decades. We are located in the capital of Croatia,
Zagreb, Knežija district. The school was founded in 1940. In 1993 and 2009, additional rooms were added. Our school is very functional,
furnished in a modern style and equipped with new technological devices. The oldest part of the school has eleven classrooms used for teaching
pupils from the first to the fourth year of primary school. The most recent part of the school building has six rooms dedicated to specialized purposes, rooms for the
staff, a library, a computer lab, rooms for crafts, religious education (Catholic and Muslim), the director's office, staff administration, conference rooms and additional classrooms. All classrooms are equipped with computers, multimedia projectors or even smartphones. Apart from that, the computer lab is equipped with two big screen 4K HDR TVs. High technology in workspaces combined with a modern furniture and good lighting allow us to achieve a creative level of  work done, including a high level of media culture. In our school premises, we also have a room dedicated to cooking classes and two separate sports halls,  while our schoolyard has volleyball, basketball and tennis court, a football and handball field, an athletics track and a garden area. We have just completed  an ESF project as well as an Erasmus + KA1 project before, and we are currently in the final stages of our Erasmus + KA2 project.
The school has 679 students, 74 teachers, 1 director, 5 specialists in pedagogy and psychology and 24 other employees. It has 24 groups of students divided into 8 levels
in the national curriculum and 8 additional groups which have all their classes in English.
All English language student programs have been running at our school since 1995. The program is held by instructions from the National Ministry of Education,
and all classes are specially modified for this program. In 2002, we started with the internationally recognized IB program, for which we were authorized in 2005.
In 1996, we won the city of Zagreb award for outstanding youth work. Through our national and international programs, we try to encourage the sharing of different cultures,              group work and the development of tolerance.  This project is a perfect extension of two areas in which our school has been very active over the past three years.
The first concerns European Union projects. We are in the final stages of our first KA2 project, which was a great development for us after our project KA1.
In the KA1 project, we aimed to improve the skills of teachers, while the KA2 project focused on improving the skills of our students in mastery
of the English language, which could naturally be extended by this project.
The second activity that our school has held in high regard in recent years is the involvement of our students in robotics and STEM in general.
We have participated in many robotics competitions and won several medals at the World Robotics Olympiad (WRO).
Our biggest achievement came in 2019 when our robotics team qualified for the global finals of the world's largest robotics competition -
First Lego League (FLL).
Ten of our students as well as teachers participated in the final competition held in Byblos, Lebanon.

We are highly active in the field of using information-communication technology in the classroom as well as during the home schooling. We have been involved in the national project innovative pedagogy, dealing with different applications and online learning toolsin different school subjects.
Our students and teachers are familiar with word / excel / powerpoint documents, using school webpager and online classrooms, they can also upload their own material in the online classroom. They can also use different online learning tools for educational purposes, programming such as scratch, making films and video, some students can create their own websites. They communicate using e-mails and can join a webconference. There is also an extra-curricular activity Roboticd available for students and there is a small group of
studentsd involved in this activity.

Valencian, Spanish and English integrally through the teaching and learning process. We carry out a large number of projects over the years by which we improve teaching methodologies in order to prepare our students for the globalized society in which we live. In addition, we are a school inclusive where students with special needs work with their classmates in an integral way assisted by the psychologist, speech therapist and specialist teacher.
We have immigrant students at school.
This project will be developed by the Erasmus Commission formed by six teachers from the school, all of B2 level, led by Guillermo Conejero Galiana with extensive experience
in the Erasmus world. If he leaves, the commission will choose another responsible person to coordinate it. At CEIP Bonavista we have a lot of resources and services to develop     our usual work such as a good Internet and WIFI connection, computers, projectors and interactive whiteboards in all classrooms. We have a lot of special classrooms like theater, lab, computer room with 20 computers, a music room, a gym, a library ... We try to develop a good number of projects to increase motivation and
the adaptation of students to the demands of society. Our main objective is to achieve meaningful learning for students and to develop in them a competence
communicative. We are a non-calm staff who try to improve day by day to offer the best of ourselves, and this is the main reason to continue this
project, that it will allow us to internationalize our school by pursuing a European project. We are also developing two KA 101s and a few winning projects. In this
case, we are very positive in learning the objectives proposed during this KA226 on the basis of the numerical aspects. In addition, for 5th and 6th year students, it is the 7th
year in which the use of tablets was replaced by the use of textbooks in school, so this project is consolidated in our school, so that we can share it with our partners. Anyway, there are other aspects related to the digital world that we need to improve just to develop properly in the world. digital securely.
We can see how students' motivation increases when they feel better throughout the learning process, so the digital aspects can
be a powerful tool. In addition, we are very happy to share our cultural aspects at the same time as we can learn new characteristics from others.
country. At the same time, involving the students throughout this project will help our children develop cultural awareness. 

Lasnamäe Vene Gümnaasium is a big school (there are around 1200 students in it and 85 teachers) that has got its own traditions and customs. It is a high school that includes basic level, too. The main aim of the school is to give students qualitative education based on modern skills and needs. Besides teachers, there are 11 specialists such as social workers who help both teachers and students as well as parents in teaching / learning process.
Children and teachers actively participate in different local projects and events, but there is no experience in international projects that is why we would like to join this project.
Since there is no experience of participating in international projects, we are ready to join and learn each skill that is needed. The project is connected with robotics and we have classes and experienced teacher who teaches students how to make robots and how they work. We also have got different gadgets such as 3D printer, Interactive board that can be also used during the project. As the main contact person I have already participated in Erasmus + projects before (when I worked in another school) and know how it works, so I can help other teachers in need.
