About Project

The guiding principle of this project was to enhance our students’ lifelong opportunities for employability and study opportunities in a modern Europe handicapped by the economic crisis. Our project intended to develop students’ confidence, communication skills and higher order thinking strategies. We aimed to fully embrace the 21st Century classroom, in terms of modern technologies, teaching strategies and project content and to recognise the diversity of our students in terms of ethnic background or multiplicity of family structures Our students were the cornerstone of the project. We designed a project which addressed the skills demanded by future employers. Our project was thematically centred around the colours of the rainbow and we applied them as symbols to specific themes The rainbow was chosen because it is a universal symbol of unity and diversity- much like the peoples of the EU. It represented collective action.
