Helping you to keep upto date with the latest International School News
The group has been created to inform you of the latest news stories and to share educational discussions . In particular we are encouraging members to share what is happening in their schools from a teachers perspective. Our hope is that you can help other teachers understand what your school is like by telling us the things that you love about your school and maybe hint at a few things you would like to see improve. The group costs nothing to join but we hope it will allow you to gain a deeper insight into you future destinations.
