We support schools in Dundee, Angus, Perth & Kinross and Fife in their development of Curriculum for Excellence. We offer -

- Support for whole-school initiatives such as
Global School Partnerships,
Fairtrade Schools,
Rights Respecting Schools and
Eco-Schools.
Continuing Professional Development
We provide CPD courses for nursery, primary and secondary teachers. Courses can be Twilight Sessions, half-day or full-day In-Service. Courses offered include:
- Introducing Global Citizenship in the nursery setting
- An Introduction to Global Citizenship (primary or secondary)
- Exploring equality and diversity in Scotland, past and present - a Global Citizenship approach
- Fair Trade – ideas and resources for the classroom (primary or secondary)
- Failte Malawi: using place as a context for Global Citizenship
All courses are participatory and are linked to Curriculum for Excellence. All can be tailored to the needs of individual schools or local authorities. For further details or to arrange your own session, contact Sally Romilly at the One World Centre.
Global Learning Project
Along with the other members of the IDEAS network and in partnership with statutory bodies, we are contributing to the Global Learning Project. This enables the delivery of effective global learning in schools and teacher education institutions.
The Global Learning Project is about showing how education for global citizenship is Curriculum for Excellence, and about supporting teachers to develop their own knowledge, skills and attitudes with regard to education for global citizenship and sustainable development. As Curriculum for Excellence places importance on developing values and attitudes as well as knowledge and skills in children and young people, a key part of the Global Learning Project is how we measure changes in values and attitudes.
Please get in touch with Sally Romilly if you'd like to know more about the Global Learning Project and how your school can be involved.
