 Make a list of the sorts of international learning and global citizenship practices that happen in your
school.

Discuss where the best opportunities are for new work. Are there opportunities to:

• enhance what is already happening

• do something in a subject or with a stage that has previously had little international learning or
global citizenship input
• do something that links subjects or stages
• do something that will enhance the ethos of the school?
