“The journey of receiving the ‘British Council International Dimension Award’ was extremely rewarding and educational. As a school, we got access to multiple new international learning platforms and we not only successfully and enthusiastically executed our IDA activities, but also went beyond that and participated in various global programs including the Global Read Aloud program, Microsoft Global Learning Connection and Global Solar Yatra.
As a school, our goal is to teach students experientially and under the ISA program we were able to use this technique to drive global learning for students on topics such as Gender Equality, Global Empathy, Cultural Appreciation and more. This prompted a very enthusiastic response from the entire Brainz team and the parents were also appreciative of these efforts and could recognize the value that these global dimension activities added to their children’s education.
Students came out of this experience with broader mindsets, a deeper appreciation for people and cultures from around the world, and developed sensitivity towards the issues and problems faced by their global peers.
I am confident that continued execution of these activities will greatly benefit our students and help the school fulfil its goal of providing Education for the 21st Century.”
