How Will eTwinning Benefit Me?

Establishing connections with other schools and sharing ideas with staff and students while working towards a shared goal has proven hugely beneficial among eTwinning participants.

Indeed, eTwinning is an easy first step to European engagement. After forming partnerships through eTwinning, many schools have gone on to do Erasmus+ school education projects together.

Five Principle Benefits

Connectivity: The eTwinning database means it’s easy to connect and build relationships with schools across Europe

Development: You and your students can develop digital literacy and ICT skills in a secure environment.

Support: Kits and resources are available to help you run your projects and teachers have access to funded eTwinning professional development workshops and seminars around Europe and online

Intercultural Exchange: Students can learn about European cultures and languages by directly linking with their peers

Recognition: There is recognition for your projects and school through eTwinning Awards including the National Quality Label, eTwinning Schools Label, European Quality Label, and Annual eTwinning Prize.
