KS2 Training Abroad Opportunity

CILT is working with the British Council to develop and deliver the 2 week Primary Teachers’ Project.
This exciting project gives teachers working in KS2 the opportunity to spend two weeks in France, Germany or Spain. The first week of the project provides intensive language and methodology support in preparation for the job shadowing in a primary school in the second week.
The projects offer excellent opportunities for teachers to develop language skills, deepen their cultural understanding and gain practical ideas for teaching and learning languages at KS2. Applicants are eligible for EU Comenius funding of up to €2,500 to pay for travel and subsistence. There is also a supply cover contribution of £525 to support schools in the week of term when teachers will be abroad. The deadline for applications is 15 September 2010.

Project dates are as follows:
Germany and France: 21 February -4 March 2011
France and Spain: 17-29 April 2011

Secondary teachers involved in outreach work in primary schools are eligible to apply if they are working in KS2 so please share this information with colleagues. Applications from those teaching or hoping to introduce German in primary schools would be particularly welcome.

Further information, including support and guidance with the application process is available at:
