Project Summary

The « Escambis » project is based on exchanges between pupils of two scholar groups, one from Spain (Aragon, Huesca district) and France (Hautes-Pyrénées district) from the rural and moutain areas. Both scholar groups include pupils from different horizons and develop their teaching methods in official (Spanish and French) and minority languagues (occitan and patués). Disabled pupils are welcome and granted with an adapted pedagogy aimed at garanteeing inclusion and equal opportunities.

This project aims at developing transnational exchanges for pre-school and primary school in both scholar groups, promoting interdisciplinary learning, enriching and completing school programme and integrating and enhancing the use of new technologies in classrooms. Pupils will be given the opportunity to develop their intercultural comprehension and new learning perspectives. Teachers will share the opportuity to take part in transnational professional developement activities.

Participants will be pupils (69 French et 160 Spanish) and assigned teachers (3 French and 6 Spanish)

Activities planned are common productions around cultural and linguistic activities in relation with local heritage (traditional songs and games etc.) and Europe (preparation of the Europe Day and European week), official and minotrity languages that will help to prepare virtual and real exchanges between pupils from both countries.

This project will enhance the development of innovative and integrated approaches and encourage the sharing of common values like equality, gender equity, non discrimination and social inclusion. It will also help both scholar groups to grow and develop new learning methods and increase their capacities to work in transnational projects.
