[Poll] If you ARE a teacher...

How do you pursue school development in your country (guidance laid down centrally? or head teacher and management of school can decide)
In the UK we advocate a personalised approach to learning, where not every student is doing the same work at the same level.
Increasingly we are trying to deliver this through ICT learning platforms.
It would be very interesting to discuss this!
There are two organisations you can join to find out more about approaches in the UK - let me know if you are interested (one is free, one has a cost).
If you want to look at the new curriculum for the UK for ages 14-19 (which is very interesting - extremely international in outlook and a lot of focus on new technology) again please get in touch I will send you the link. Just let me know if you are a teacher or a student or a consultant.
Or find your own way... here is the link.

We have a special toolkit for language teaching with understanding of diverse cultures - this is so new. Because of this schools in the UK are keen to link with schools in Francophone and Latin (Spanish speaking) countries so let me know if you are a teacher in such a country and want a UK link!
For teachers we can offer some projects on school development.
Are you allowed to include a global perspective in your teaching?
