Advice for other schools • Plan some activities ( not too many) and follow the plans. You can still add more as you go along. • Discuss your problems with other partner schools.They can help you. • Put different people in the mobilities ( they see and feel the project in a different way). Only the coordinator must go everywhere. • Plan well the mobilities ( make a separate plan for children in the mobilities) • Make clear criteria for exchange of students ( e.g.: involvement in project, marks, behaviour) • Children stay with families ( save money)
Wish you a lot of enthusiasm and good luck from our school team!
