Environmental Education Programme

The aim of the project was to create a comprehensive environmental education course that could be easily incorporated into individual school curricula and provide schools—including those not participating in the project—with ready-to-use, easily accessible teaching programmes, materials and resources.

The project was designed to develop the theme of Environmental Education in a cohesive way, by sharing ideas and resources among a selected group of schools, creating synergies and training a significant group of qualified teachers to work as a team with an international perspective.

The project was developed in partnership with Escola Secundária José Saramago (Mafra - Portugal), Colegio Santo Domingo Savio (Ubeda - Spagna), Colegiul National "Octavian Goga" (Sibiu - Portogallo), IFOA Reggio Emilia and Emphasys Interactive Solutions (Cipro).

When considering what is essential for a good school, it is natural to think of books, good teachers and curricula.

But one of the most vital elements of a healthy learning environment is something we cannot see: CLEAN AIR. STAIRS aims to combine a STEM teaching approach (both teaching coding by creating an air quality monitoring system using ARDUINO and environmental sensors to measure indoor and outdoor air quality, and traditional experiments that do not require coding skills.

Students, teachers and parents will learn that if the air in schools is polluted or contaminated, their learning, health and long-term development could be negatively affected (due to asthma, allergies, airborne bacteria and viruses that cause illnesses such as influenza and COVID-19).

A common European reference framework for health and sustainability - vision or necessary reality?

Four delegations of students and teachers from different European countries brought the IESS student week to life, making it possible to develop, finally in person, the first part of the project “A Common European Framework of Reference for Health and Sustainability”.

This transnational initiative is part of the Erasmus+ programme, the EU’s student mobility programme for education, training, youth and sport in Europe.

The project engaged students in initiatives related to food sustainability, from guided visits to local sites to classroom activities. The use of new technologies enabled dynamic, lively interaction, fostering new friendships and promoting the use of English.

Happiness Is...

The «HAPPINESS is …» project was designed to explore the theme of happiness from an international, multidisciplinary perspective, by sharing experiences, reflections, ideas and resources among teachers and students from a selected group of schools.

The initiative is part of a European Erasmus+ project for education, training, youth and sport; our students took part in intercultural exchanges with Collège Henri Wallon in Savigny-le-Temple (Parigi) and Leonhard-Wagner-Gymnasium in Schwabmunchen (Monaco).

B-Green

The European project “B-Green: Equipping Students with Green Skills, Knowledge and Attitudes for Sustainable Development”aims to establish partnerships for environmental education and awareness, fostering a strong ecological mindset among school students. The project seeks to equip them to address today’s environmental challenges with a proactive attitude and a strong commitment to their communities.

AI-Understood

AI-Understood aims to develop AI literacy among secondary school students by integrating Artificial Intelligence into STEM and citizenship education. The project promotes critical thinking, creativity, ethical awareness and inclusive learning, with particular attention to girls' participation in STEM. Through educational videos, practical resources, analog and digital learning boxes, and interdisciplinary lesson plans, teachers and students will explore AI's potential, limitations and societal implications. Classroom testing will support the development of a pedagogical implementation guide and a policy white paper. By empowering educators and fostering responsible, hands-on AI learning, the project seeks to create an innovative, inclusive and transferable educational model that prepares young people to participate actively and responsibly in an AI-driven society.
