Many schools benefit from collaboration with other schools in their region and throughout Europe. EU funding is also available to schools under certain conditions. ACSI Europe encourages this collaboration for mutual growth and suggests the following types of collaboration projects:
- School visits for leaders
- School visits for teachers
- Student exchanges and short visits
- Collaborative mission trips or community service days
- Collaborative learning projects
- Cultural exchanges or festival invitations
- High school sports or music competitions
- Summer language / arts / music or sports camps
- Resource and document sharing
After 31 July, 2021 this service will be discontinued as the Christian School Improvement Platform will provide a higher quality of collaboration and potential for school partnerships. CSIP is available to all ACSI member schools at acsieu.org/csip
- We are no longer accepting new submission for these School Profile Forms.
- You may access forms submitted in the last 2 years by logging in to CSIP.
REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS: Collaboration commitments are limited to 1 or 2 years. Remember that all schools have a right to decline collaboration. Please be considerate and do not ask for help or resources that have not been offered. European Union funding is available for school collaboration and this might be available to your school as your primary financial resource.
ACSI Europe seeks to facilitate and encourage collaboration but is not responsible for any funding or the success of any project.
ACSI Europe also offers an online course for teachers to develop international collaborative projects for their students with the following goals:
- Providing International collaboration opportunities at teacher and student levels (with discounts for ACSI member schools)
- Helping teachers develop meaningful biblical integration in their school subjects to facilitate character and spiritual formation of their students
- Learning how to design effective projects for Project Based Learning
- Developing your students' 21st Century Learning Skills (collaboration, critical thinking, creativity and communication)
Education as a Restoration of Hope
Today we turn to the good news: God’s plan of restoration through Christ. This is not only a personal hope but also a framework for how we think about education, leadership, and the shaping of society. How can we build meaningful outcomes into the process of teaching and learning which truly reflect the hope we have in Christ?
Recognizing the Problem of Sin
The foundational, yet often overlooked, reality is the way sin impacts both teaching and learning. As school leaders, we cannot view education merely as the transfer of knowledge or the development of skills. Education is always moral and spiritual, shaped either by truth that comes from God or by distortions introduced by sin.
ACSI Europe Online Prayer
Join Christian school leaders from across the Europe region for a time of prayer, fellowship and encouragement. This group meets on Zoom the 2nd Thursday each month at 13:00 CET to focus our attention on God's presence and provision for His work through global Christian education.
Education as an Affirmation of Identity
Here we explore one of the most pressing issues facing Christian schools today: how we understand and communicate identity and purpose. Our role as school leaders is to help students discover who they are and why they are here, according to God’s Word, and to ensure that our school culture and curriculum reflect this foundational truth.
