Progress your GCE Teaching and Learning Workshop

Tuesday, 18th October 2022, on Zoom

This workshop is essential for post primary schools who have been doing Global Citizenship Education for a number of years. This workshop will help teachers to go further with their students and to strengthen their GCE approach vis a vis the WWGS guiding principles. It will also help teachers in their future Global Passport applications as it is the key area that has been identified by WWGS that needs improvement.
