Sabro Korsvej School, Sabro, Denmark looks for Comenius school partners on Citizenship, locally and globally. The city of Chateau-Chinon in Burgundy, France, looks for partners for a Grundtvig project on a family educational action with parents in difficulty with writing. The Surrey County Council, England UK, is looking to make contact with organisations undertaking community focussed, vocational opportunities for those most distanced from the workplace (within the Leonardo da Vinci programme).

Sabro Korsvej School, Denmark
Comenius School Partnership
How can we, as educators and teachers qualify pupils to a very different world? Social skills are increasingly important. Being creative and innovative, able to communicate and cooperate should be key components of education that plays a vital role in helping children and young people recognize their responsibilities as citizens of their local and global community. The project aims to design strategies and methodologies that can support school development and improvement based on work on pupils’ creativity and intercultural competences.

CFPPA, Chateau-Chinon, Burgundy, France
Grundtvig Project
From a family educational action with parents in difficulty with writing must come out proposals so that the parents who don't control completely writing and "basic knowledge" can better accompany their children towards academic success, and take advantage of their right to the formation throughout the life. When parents learn to read, to write, to count, they find their role of parents. The CFPPA practises pedagogy "Research-action-Formation".

Surrey County Council, England UK
Leonardo da Vinci Project
Surrey is looking to make contact with organisations undertaking community focussed, vocational opportunities for those most distanced from the workplace. These can be paid or voluntary positions, or social enterprises performing roles to help the local community and increase the citizenship of the participants, such as local gardening services for older people, building projects, community cafes or professional drama/ dance groups. They are interested in exchanging experiences about work that improves the independence of the participants with a particular interest in those utilising assistive technologies to help people with learning disabilities to lead independent lives.
