Cranford Hosts New International Partners
December 2019 saw the launch of our new Erasmus Plus
project following a successful application last year.
The project focuses on transnational learning under
the title ‘Educational and vocational education within the
context of a changing European landscape’ and is part of
Cranford’s ongoing mission to learn from high performing
education systems across the globe.
With Brexit looming, Cranford is bucking the trend and getting
closer to our European neighbours. We are partnered with
Kvaløya Videregående Skole in Tromsø and Koning Willem I
College in Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands. The first week of December saw us welcome Oddbjorn, Jon
and Emilie all the way from a technical upper secondary school in the Arctic circle and Peter, Imre and
Carola from a Post-16 college of 15,000 students in the Den Bosch region of central Holland.
The strength of this partnership is built on our different contexts as well as the things we share. All three
outstanding educational institutions bring different things to the table and are keen to learn from each
other. Each country has their own focus with Cranford wishing to learn about best practice in high quality
technical education to support the launch of the T levels. Norway and the Netherlands are widely recognised
as international leaders in technical education. In return we are sharing our experience and practice of
effective assessment systems and the successful integration and achievements of students from diverse
backgrounds, for which we are internationally renowned.
This was the first of six planned trips, two in each country, scheduled between 2020 and 2022 and it was
fantastic start. Cranford, as always, extended a warm welcome to all and our visitors had a great time
during their three day visit touring both Cranford and Berkeley, observing lessons, engaging in energetic
and informative discussions and sampling a few nights out in London!
We cannot wait to visit Tromsø in February and meet up again with our partners on the next leg of a very
exciting learning journey.
