Project “T.E.A.M. – Thoughtful Education, Active Motivation” corresponds with our school's European Development Plan. The project aims at elevating the level of motivation to work both among students and our institution's employees. By means of introducing modern and innovative methods, applying accurate diagnostic tools (educational and pedagogical needs) and securing the access to regular international cooperation, it will meet the expectations of the “cyber–generation” students. We realise that the low level of motivation leads to the decrease of teaching and learning results, behavioural and discipline issues, early school leaving, wrong career choices, job burnout, or lack of (international) development perspectives. The project anticipates achieving the following goals:– acquiring the ability to work with modern, innovative and creative techniques;– improving linguistic skills (foreign language);– developing soft skills;– rising motivation to work, learn and teach; which counteracts job burnout;– improving the quality of out–of–class work;– refining the abilities to manage the institution;– making international contacts, exchanging experiences with foreign teachers, students and administration workers;– raising the diagnostic effectiveness of the students' educational and developmental needs.Our partner in this project is Lincoln Christ's Hospital School, which is experienced in sharing their knowledge and abilities with international associates. The school boards over forty Polish students, therefore, the problem of coping with motivation and maintaining the high motivation level among Polish students is well known to the host organisation. In their work, Lincoln Christ's Hospital School also applies modern technology and teaching methods, which support versatile, comprehensive and motivating development of students, teachers and administration workers.From among their qualified personnel, Primary School 16 in Elbląg has appointed 8 staff members to participate in the course in Lincoln, United Kingdom, and later, they will share the acquired knowledge and abilities with the teachers' council, friendly institutions and local community. The experience gained during the course will transfer onto creating and carrying out new authoring programs, pedagogical innovations, modern forms of extracurricular activities, educational and prevention programs.While completing this project our staff will improve their skills and abilities with respect to using a foreign language, they will develop their teacher's workshop and acquire knowledge essential for assuring our students' needs. They will also gain some experience with working on European Union level. Finally, they will expand the international contact network of our institution.
