Schools Connect is the British Council’s programme for schools in the UK and around the world.
We help teachers to bring an international perspective to the curriculum and work with education policymakers to explore effective practices from other countries. This supports young people to build the skills, knowledge and attitudes they need to respond to global challenges and develop international understanding.
Schools Connect offers a range of support to make your school’s international journey a success.
- Get started by visiting our international partner-finding database, then download our ready-to-go classroom resources to help you work together with your partner school.
- You’ll find plenty of expert guidance on our website, as well as events and workshops to help you get the most out of your international school partnership.
- Looking for extra help? Our guided partnerships offer structured support to communicate and carry out collaborative projects with schools in other countries.
- Inspire your pupils to see climate as a global issue and work with them to explore positive climate action by working with our climate-focussed classroom resources.
- Make sure you get recognition for your work by applying for the International School Award, which supports schools with fostering an international ethos throughout the school and embedding it within the curriculum.
