As well as meeting quality assessment criteria, there is a new emphasis on European and national priorities for Comenius partnership applications. The European priorities are outlined on this page.
In addition, the UK and other countries may apply national priorities. It is therefore important for your partners to be aware of any national priorities applied by their National Agencies.
Partnerships addressing the theme of Intercultural Dialogue
Partnerships which take specific measures to:
 |
 |
|
Promote languages, whether early language learning, multilingual comprehension, and/or CLIL* (Content and Language Integrated Learning) |
|
|
|
Help persons with a disability or other special needs take part in the project |
|
|
|
Make sure that males and females have equal access to the project |
|
|
|
*CLIL involves the delivery of the curriculum through the medium of foreign languages, for example, using Spanish for the teaching of mathematics |
Across Comenius in 2008, priority will be given to applications which demonstrate the activity will widen participation from disadvantaged or marginalised groups, including pupils from ethnic minorities and socio-economically or geographically deprived areas, travellers, looked-after children and pupils with special needs.
