Weiterentwicklung des internationalen Profils der Landrat-Gruber-Schule und ihrer Lehrkräfte, Studierenden, Schülerinnen und Schüler
Start date: Oct 18, 2014, End date: Oct 17, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Landrat-Gruber-Schule wants to develop its international profil. This means a participation in the State of Hesse "Europaschulprogramm", the implementation of a bilingual branch of the college, and the chance for international experiences for students and staff. The project applied for consists of a part A, study visits for college staff, and part B, a work shadowing programme for 12 students. The project background is the long lasting co-operation between South Cheshire College (SCC) and Landrat-Gruber-Schule in the field of school and college development. The participation in two Comenius Regio projects and a couple of Leonardo study visits are the baisis for a very intensive co-operation. Landrat-Gruber-Schule takes part in a Hesse pilot projct "independent vocational colleges". As part of this project many ideas to run a college, which are alredy implemented in England, can now be realised in Hesse colleges. These are e.g.: more independence, college budget, quality management, new teaching and learning strategies. The visits at SCC, planned in the part A of the project will give college managers the chance to get to know new developments. In the past projects important input to college and school development in Hesse could be achieved. It is planned that 30 participants travel to SCC in two years. The new intercultural experience of discussions with colleagues in England will be very important for participants. The main activity during the visit is "peer review and development", an approach developed during the recent Comenius Regio project. For the students the participation in the project is a part of their training to become a nursary school teacher. All students take part in a weekly lesson to prepare the internship, consisting of cultural, language and job related parts. During the internschip participants get to know new concepts of education in the pre-school area, have contacts with kids, parents and colleagues and organise their daily live in the foreign country. The students work in pre-schools and nurseries, looked after by our regional partners. The project will qualify the students for the national and the international employment market and it will make them more competetive because of their better language and job related qualifications. Many pre-schools are visited by kids with migration background. International competence, as aquired in the project, will help the future kindergarten teachers in their job. This is particularly important for the Rhein-Main area, the region around Landrat-Gruber-Schule, with many pre-school institutions with international profil and international children and parents.
