Rainey Endowed School has been awarded Intermediate level of the British Council’s prestigious International School Award in recognition of its work to bring the world into the classroom.
The International School Award celebrates the achievements of schools that do exceptional work in international education. Fostering an international dimension in the curriculum is at the heart of the British Council’s work with schools so that young people gain the cultural understanding and skills they need for life and work in today’s world.
This award celebrates our partnerships with Rainey Primary in Uganda and Rainey Kindergarten, Hangzhou, as well as events such as International Day of Languages and daily international work in classrooms through LLW, Technology, HE, Business Studies, and Modern Languages.
Shannon West, Head of UK Schools for the British Council, said: “Rainey’s international work has earned the school well-deserved recognition with the British Council International School Award – Intermediate Certificate.
We are proud and delighted to work with this great school. Many thanks to everyone for all their commitment to developing international work and sharing excellent classroom practice and resources. This is enriching education for its pupils; and their excellent collaborative projects with partner schools overseas are bringing the world into their classrooms. International work is key support for the development of skills young people need to be the globally aware citizens of the future.”
