Comenius Region Partnership_Scotland

Dr Meryl James is a Modern Languages Support Officer at Perth and Kinross Council in Scotland. The council is currently looking for a European partner to work with in the development of an exciting new Comenius Regio Partnership.

The project will last for two years and involve the local authority, several schools and an outside partner. It will set out to improve literacy skills and enhance modern language learning. There will be a specific focus on later primary and early secondary school teaching with the themes of a Curriculum for Excellence which have become the responsibility of all teachers in Scotland. This includes literacy, numeracy, health and wellbeing (diet, fitness, sport, relaxation techniques, etc).

If you know of a European Regional/Local Authority that may be interested in this opportunity, we would be very grateful if you would pass this message on to your relevant contacts.

Any interested organisations should contact Meryl James at Perth & Kinross Council directly (meryljames@pkc.gov.uk)
Many thanks,
Robert
