eTwinning UK Award winners

eTwinning Quality Label

The Quality label is awarded to schools to recognise good practice in eTwinning projects.    

What are the benefits?

There’s concrete recognition for the school’s European collaborative work which can give a boost to pupils’ motivation, reward teachers’ commitment and enhance the school’s profile.   
The achievement can be used to lead to further accreditation through the
International School Award.   
Each school gaining the Quality Label in the 2007-08 school year will receive three complimentary 1GB Flash Drives.   
Each project gaining the Quality Label during the 2007-08 school year will be automatically put forward for the annual UK eTwinning awards held in June 2008 (Subject to a deadline towards the end of the year - date to be advised). Read about award winners from 06/07   
Schools gaining the Quality Label can be considered for the project of the month feature on this website which helps others get ideas of how to make a successful project work.
