"Joining the European Parliament Ambassador Schools program has been a transformative experience for our students and it has significantly enriched our curriculum, offering our students unique insights into the workings of the European Union and the importance of active citizenship. Through engaging activities and direct interaction with EU representatives, our students and our EU Ambassadors have developed a deeper understanding of European democratic values and processes. This initiative has not only broadened their global perspective but also empowered them to become more informed and active participants in their communities. Our school is proud to be part of this program, which continues to inspire and educate our future leaders." Eva Souza, EU Ambassador Schools GSAT Lead
In September 2023, our school proudly joined the European Parliament Ambassadors programme, marking a significant milestone as an ambassador school with our students appointed as junior ambassadors. Despite the United Kingdom's departure from the European Union, our school community, comprised largely of European Union citizens residing in a European country, enthusiastically embraced this educational initiative.
The programme exceeded our expectations, enriching our students with profound knowledge, valuable experiences, and innovative ideas. Throughout the school year, our junior ambassadors participated in seminars, debates, and celebrations at Europe House in London, in addition to hosting numerous meetings on campus. These gatherings explored topics ranging from European history and democracy to the implications of Brexit and the purpose of the European Union.
Becoming an ambassador school transcended academic discourse to include enjoyable activities such as project creation, music appreciation, and exploring diverse European cuisines—a privilege our ambassadors enthusiastically embraced. We take immense pride in our affiliation with the European Parliament Ambassador programme, viewing ourselves as an integral part of its extended family and eagerly anticipating continued participation in the years ahead.
Witnessing the positive transformation in our students, their enhanced ability to articulate opinions, and their newfound perspectives has been truly remarkable. This initiative has opened up a world of endless possibilities for them, shaping their development and expanding their horizons in profound ways. We look forward to nurturing these experiences and fostering further growth within our school community.
