The Schools Linking Project is a national programme which has been running successfully in schools for 16 years, creating year-long curriculum rich class links between schools.
The project links pairs of classes from the Newcastle area based on the mutual benefits for the schools. The paired groups will meet three times across the school year with the first of these meetings taking place at the Laing Art Gallery. At the gallery the students take part in a series of art activities and games.
The project is designed to explore 4 key areas:
• Who am I? – exploring identity
• Who are we? – celebrating diversity
• Where do we live? – promoting community
• How do we all live together? – championing equality
The project, developed by The Linking Network, is nationally recognised as offering a positive, age appropriate curriculum contribution to spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils, British values and the Prevent Duty.
Take a look at the Home Learning Resources that The Linking Network have put together to support these values in and outside of the classroom.
