Erasmus+ is the European Union programme for education, training, youth and sport, running from 2021 to 2027. It has a budget of €26.2 billion for all of Europe, to fund learning mobility and cross-border cooperation projects for ten million Europeans of all ages and all backgrounds.

We are very pleased to announce that St. Paul’s was accepted into their first Erasmus programme projects from 2020 – 2022.

The programme objectives are:

• Support through lifelong learning for the educational, professional and personal development of people in education, training and youth, in Europe and beyond.
• Promote Learning Mobility in Education and Training for staff, pupils and learners, along with cooperation, quality, inclusion and equity, excellence, creativity and innovation.

St. Paul’s are leading an international project on ‘The Outdoor Classroom’ from 2020 – 2023.  We are working closely with our partners in Finland, Italy, Portugal and Slovenia.  Through sharing our own expertise, and listening to that of our partner schools, we hope to have many new and innovative learning experiences to offer our pupils. We will have more to share with you over the course of the project on our website and twitter feed!
