Where do we link?
Our invaluable guide to where to link,
listed by country.
We have included ideas for curriculum
links by topic, eg Ghana to chocolate; Cotton and
textiles to India; sustainability to Nepal; enterprise to
Indonesia) ...
...and by subject: MFL to France, Spain,
Germany... not forgetting Rwanda, Mexico or even Japan; community
languages to India or Pakistan; citizenship to South Africa;
history to Turkey, Greece, West Africa, Russia, Poland; business
studies to Taiwan, media studies and ICT to USA or Eastern
Europe.
We've listed the programmes that run in these
countries (it turns out UK-Germany links offer the most in
terms of programmes and funding!).
We've mentioned any special aspects that might
be worth considering before making a link with this country, and
added our own tips and insights from three years of linking
schools.
In some cases we have worked with British Council
offices in countries where schools are especially keen to
link with the UK. They have put together pages to invite you to
link with them, giving some reasons you may not have
considered!
How do you plan your link?
We are asked this question so often that we have put together
a little
Q&A quiz that guides you effortlessly
towards some clearer ideas of what links would suit your school
best (opens in a new window).
