Schullogo2009 org unescomodern (2).jpg

The school has 750 students and 75 teachers and offers a wide range of subjects: science/sports/arts/languages/humanities. The school is equipped with a high-tech IT-infrastructure: computers and projectors in all classes/whiteboards/iPads/3d-printers/biology and chemistry laboratories and it is a nationally certified eLearning and STEM school. In the lower grades (class 14) students can select either an extra second foreign language (French or Latin) or they focus their studies on science. Since several years, the school has also been providing its students with Content and Language Integrated Learning Classes (CLIL), which means that non-language classes e.g. arts/biology/geography etc. are taught bilingually. As an optional subject the school offers the subject Biological Experiences in English (BEE) bilingually, which specialises on ecological and enviromental project work. In relation to this subject S&T carry out every year different schoolprojects on climate change, global warming, wood and water management etc. The best projects are presented every year at an intern. youth conference. In the higher grades (class 5-8) students can focus on certain fields like: music and arts, language, science in which they also do a lot of project work also in English. Especially languages play an important role in the higher grades. English is offered as an obligatory 1st foreign language, then French, Italian and Spanish. The school has been participating in several international projects (Comenius, eTwinning, Erasmus+, Caretakers of the Environment International, etc. ) and the school has always tried to offer its S&T to create an intern. network to enlarge their personal and professional perspectives. Currently the BG/BRG Judenburg coordinates an Erasmus+ KA2 project with 3 partners focusing on drama and film. The BG/BRG Judenburg has carried out several EU and international projects based on ecological/environmental projects. The school's motivation is to continue working in this field to maintain/enlarge already existing professional knowledge and Europan wide networks and to offer its students to get involved in European matters. Another motivation is to pass on this professional knowledge/ experience to other schools in Europe that they can benefit from. The BG/BRG Judenburg has established an Erasmus+ coordination team and a team of motivated teachers who are experienced in working in European projects. In case that one member leaves the post there will be other members to cover this person. The school is very experienced in organising international projects as it organised an international youth conference in 2018 with more than 250 intern. delegates from approx. 20 countries. The BG/BRG Judenburg also has a very good network with local/regional institutions/companies and experts which will contribute to this project. The school's staff is also experienced in interdisciplinary project work, which facilitates the implementation of workshops.

Stolpedalsskolen - DENMARK

The school has 750 students and 70 teachers and offers a wide range of subjects: science/sports/arts/languages. The school is equipped with a high-tech IT-infrastructure: computers and projectors in all classes/whiteboards/iPads/3d-printers/biology and chemistry laboratories and a small library. The school is located in a beautiful area with the zoo close by as well as two forests.

 

Our outdoor facilities are quite good and the school is in walking distance of the city. Next year the school is going to be a part of ‘Green Flag’ which means that all students are going to be educated in sustainability. Among many things this motivates us to participate in the project.

 

Another thing that motivates us is giving our students the possibility to host young people their own age from other countries and showing them how we work with sustainability. The school has never participated in an Erasmus+ project, that is why the administration and the teachers are highly motivated to get into activities of the European Union in order to promote the European idea. This is their first Erasmus+ project, but they have carried out exchanges with European schools before. Charlotte Kristensen and Jørgen Juel Kristiansen will be the key people in this project. Katrine Kjær and Katrine Baltzersen will also participate. If one of the teachers leaves the school or the project there will be enough teachers at school who can replace the leaving person. The school can contribute in the field of science and culture.

The next strong point is a fact that students are willing to act . They organize certain school ceremonies and events and come up with different ideas. e.g. LipDub, school TV. In the school there is a drama club where students work on their actor skills and learn how to create a good scenery.

 

The school has been taking part in many projects such as: - 'Make a step' project conducted by AISEC organization, the project assumes cooperation with students from different countries that come to our school to conduct cultural classes in the English language, - ' A young citizen' project, it is a Polish project that promotes the knowledge of local community and shows what actions students can take in their local environment.

 

The international projects we have been taking part in, as well as, actions we regularly take up in our school allow us, as exchange partners, to focus on the topic of Europe. All the steps we take aim at showing our students that we are all European citizens, deal with the topic of diversity and culture with the great emphasis on our own traditions and identity. International students that conduct classes with our pupils, teaching staff that develop their language and methodology competences abroad as well as visit partner and host schools to share good practices, and finally student exchanges are to be mentioned here. Having some experience in European projects, we set up a team of teachers responsible for it, as well as educators involved in project activities in school and in partner schools. In case that one member can not be a part of the team there is always a person who will take up his/her post.
