Schools Online has a whole-school approach that benefits everyone in the school community and helps schools to fulfil their objectives.
Schools Online allows pupils to interact with each other by exploring common interests and cultural and social differences at an individual, class, and school level. It provides pupils with a great opportunity to broaden their international understanding, deepen their interest in different cultures, and develop the ability to cooperate with young people from around the world. School links are also valuable for practical and purposeful English learning and the interactive use of ICT.
