Let’s Go Global

 Let’s Go Global

We are living in the age of globalization where the world is becoming a global village. To expand the bounds of thinking and understanding of the students as well as the teachers towards a wider outlook of the world around them, we at St. Xavier’s World School have taken up the initiative to work on the principle of "Think Globally, Act Locally" by participating in the British Council International School Award(ISA).

The British Council is the UK’s international organization for cultural relations and educational opportunities. The ISA is a bench marking scheme that accredits schools as having an outstanding level of support for:

●      Nurturing global citizenship in young people
●      Enriching teaching and learning

The International School Award has its presence in 31 countries worldwide.

It has always been the school's endeavour to impart quality education to its students and equip them with essential skills to emerge as responsible global citizens. Under the ISA initiative, the school is going to have a bonanza of activity throughout the academic year 2019-20 embedding International learning across the school and curriculum.

The wide array of activities are divided into 7 major activities, out of which 4 are in -house activities and 3 are collaborative activities with partner school from different countries.

The students will share their knowledge and views on different global issues through technology based mediums like Skype sessions, British Council Connecting Classroom’s Project Spaces, e-mails etc. The ISA activities carried out throughout the session will involve the participation of all the students and the staff.

ISA is a leadership challenge and fosters team building, innovation, and project management. The school has revised its policy to include international dimension and has appointed two ISA Coordinators Ms. Shruti Kamra and Ms. Shaily Tanwar for the same purpose. The coordinators will also complete two courses with British Council.

A dossier of all the activities conducted during the year will be compiled as evidence and submitted for approval to the British Council which will entitle us for the International School Award.
