The Department for Education and Skills has designated the week of the 10 to 14 November International Education Week (IEW). It's an opportunity to celebrate the benefits of internationalism in the curriculum, and promote and learn from educational projects, partnerships, visits and exchanges with other countries.
This year's focus will be on international activities within schools, but we welcome participation from those involved in education at all levels. We are also hoping that organisations such as embassies, subject associations, unions, voluntary organisations and businesses will take part.<br><br>how to get involved<br>If you are planning any events related to international activities this autumn, why not hold them between the 10 and 14 November as part of International Education Week?<br><br> Some examples of events could be students giving a presentation about their visit to another country or Teachers' International Professional Development (TIPD) participants holding a dissemination event for other schools.<br><br>If you need any further information, or would like to let us know about your plans for the week, email us at: iew.england@dfes.gsi.gov.u<br><br>www.teachernet.gov.uk/iew
