Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning

Connecting Classrooms through Global Learning was an international programme supporting teaching and learning about global issues, running from 2018 to 2020. It was funded by UK Government with the British Council, in partnership with the Geographical Association. Historical Association and several other Subject Associations were involved too. Connecting Classrooms built on the work of the Global Learning Programme which ran from 2013 to 2018.

Connecting Classrooms supported schools internationally, and in the UK, to learn about and collaborate on the big issues that face the world. It helped teachers bring global learning themes centred on the Sustainable Development goals into their classrooms, and pupils to interact and learn with peers in other countries.
