Erasmus+ School Education: Mount Sion CBS

“We are learning European best practices, and it is just that confidence that [teachers] bring back to the classroom that sets our learners up. We have all learned to better accommodate every single learner in the class through attending courses, especially digital literacy.”   – Sarah Kennedy, teacher at Mount Sion 

Mount Sion CBS is an inclusive secondary school for boys catering for students from a wide range of socio-economic and cultural backgrounds. Through their Erasmus+ project, “Meeting the Needs of All”, school staff sought to gain valuable insights into inclusion, differentiation and special education by collaborating with partners in Spain. 

Staff members attended upskilling courses on communication, digital literary and multiculturalism in Spain. 

Upon their return, staff delivered presentations and workshops during in-house training, sharing European best practices and demonstrating new tools and methodologies. The mobility boosted teachers’ confidence and equipped them with the skills to better support and accommodate all learners.    

The “Meeting the Needs of All” Erasmus+ project strengthened inclusion, enhanced teaching methods, and fostered knowledge sharing, demonstrating the power of international collaboration in supporting both staff and learners. The impact of Mount Sion’s project demonstrates how Erasmus+ brings learning to life, supports staff in broadening their professional skills and, in turn, empowering their students to thrive.
