Welcome to the St Francis and Cross dale U.K link.
St. Francis School is pleased to announce an International School Link with a partner school in
United Kingdom (Nottingham).
Over the past few months Bro. Cletus has been working extremely hard in establishing an international school link and with the continued help and support of Mr. Cresswell together with other outside agencies, we are pleased to provide the children and staff of St. Francis this wonderful opportunity to learn more about the wider world.
The International school partnership will benefit the pupils and staff of the whole school through collaboration and communication with learners of a different culture and their outlook. This can enhance language learning, but much more besides, including citizenship, history and geography all of which benefit from a global dimension and better understanding of diversity.
More importantly, a sustained and committed school link can help pull together the identity and enhance the ethos of the school.
We hope the partnership will promote a forward-thinking approach in both school by encouraging reflection and discussion. It can be used to tackle particular areas that need focus and improvement in the schools, or to celebrate what is best about the school and to share and showcase it to greater effect to a partner school.
