This academic year has marked remarkable growth in our school’s Erasmus+ programme, reflecting our ongoing commitment to internationalization and educational excellence. Compared to last year, we have expanded our reach with more diverse destinations, deeper partnerships, and greater involvement from the whole school community.
The journey began in February with a short-term exchange in Genoa, Italy, in collaboration with Liceo Gobetti. A group of students and teachers participated in joint educational and cultural activities that strengthened the bond between both institutions.
Later, in April, a group of our students and teachers traveled to Portlaoise, Ireland, where they took part in an enriching exchange with Portlaoise College. The experience included classroom collaboration, cultural outings, and meaningful interaction with Irish peers.
Following that, two of our students undertook a long-term mobility to Gourdon, France, spending a month immersed in the French language, education system, and culture, promoting their independence and intercultural awareness.
In parallel, six members of our teaching and management team participated in a Job Shadowing programme in Helsinki, Finland, where they explored the different practices of the Finnish education system.
Shortly after, we welcomed a group of French students and teachers from our partner school in Gourdon. They spent two days at our school discovering our teaching methods, participating in activities with our students, and strengthening our ongoing collaboration.
Most recently, we hosted a group of Swedish teachers, future partners in our upcoming Erasmus+ project titled “Behind the Seams», which will officially launch next school year.
These Erasmus+ experiences have deeply enriched our school, significantly expanding our international footprint compared to last year. Our goal remains to grow each year and involve the entire school community—students, staff, and families—in building a more connected and inclusive European future.
