This project is a response to identified needs of our institution – junior high school ”Keglik”. A survey which was conducted among the teachers, parents of our students and parents of our prospective students revealed that there is a large interest in the change of teaching quality and the prospect of being open to the world. We have asked our respondents to indicate specific goals for a good modern school. After analysis of the questionnaires and taking into account our teachers’ opinions, we made a diagnosis of our possibilities and stated that changes are needed.Our response is the project entitled ”School of success – a creative and innovative teacher”, where we described methods for modernising and a positive change in the quality of our work.The project is related to:- implementation of our school’s European Development Plan,- extensive cooperation with institutions from whole Europe,- improving results of teaching and education.In order to achieve this aim dependably prepared teachers are needed. The conducted survey revealed poor command of English among 90% of our teachers and insufficient ICT skills. We are aware that they are essential in advanced process of teaching. These are the reasons why we want to offer courses for 19 teachers in our project.OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT ARE:- to provide language skills for our teachers in order to enable them to participate in European programmes for training and educating the youth. Good command of English will enable them to participate in implementation of eTwinning projects, mobilities to other countries as parts of ”Erasmus+” strategic partnerships projects and international exchanges,- to prepare our teachers to teach their school subjects in a bilingual class which we intend to introduce,- to use ICT and effective methods while teaching school subjects in class,- to use the opportunities given by interactive whiteboards, e-learning platform and eTwinning projects in the process of teaching,- to support didactics by using tablets and iPads during lessons,- to show the teachers that learning can be efficient and attractive,- to overcome cultural barriers and fear.DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES; PROFILES AND NUMBER OF TEACHERS:- methodical and language course to prepare for teaching in a CLIL class – 6 teachers (3 scientific subjects teachers, 3 humanities teachers) who will use Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) in their work.
