Проект «Фінська підтримка реформи української школи» шукає Спеціаліста проекту. Дедлайн – 09 серпня 2019 року.

Background

Learning Together is a four-year collaborative project that started between Ukraine and Finland in July 2018, and was joined by the EU in late 2018. The work is scheduled to last until July 2022. The Project is implemented by FCG International.

The expected long-term impact for Finland’s Support to the Ukrainian School Reform is to enhance the quality of education in Ukraine as well as the perceptions the Ukrainian citizens have on their education system.   The recently added EU support is specifically aimed at enhancing the instruction of the Ukrainian language as second language among the national minorities, in line with the Road Map of 2018 by the MoES on minority languages. The Project is implemented by FCG International.

More specifically, Finland’s Support to the Ukrainian School Reform focuses on general secondary education and is designed around three interlinked result-clusters and cross-cutting elements. The three clusters are:

Teacher preparation – This includes support for teacher preparation in Grades 1-4 for implementing the competence-based curriculum as well as for developing alternative professional development systems, including on-line courses and mentoring and certification system.

Education promotion – This includes support for raising awareness on the education reform, generating more positive perceptions on education and teacher.

Education environment – This includes support for developing and using an e-platform for education professionals and students as well as for school leadership and education material production.
