The second week of December we travelled to Stuttgart (Germany) to meet up with other teachers from Poland, Latvia, Norway, Britain and Germany itself. The aim of this meeting was to prepare a project in which all of our respective students can work together, communicating between their schools, discussing job opportunities, entrepreneurship, and leadership around Europe.
It was a fantastic opportunity to expand our school´s network and make some great contacts with like-minded teachers.

DECEMBER 2009:Evaluation by students
It's not an easy task, not for them nor for us. However being able to evaluate other people work means they are aware of it, conscious. Their opinion can help us improve our work, and broaden their knowledge at the same time.
