Why is it important?
Teacher professionalism; teacher development; teacher collaboration; international partnership working. They all matter. In this case study, teachers reflect on how they've benefit from this international collaboration and how, as a result they will try and improve their own practice.
Perspectives
This is an important area of work. Teacher-capacity building across borders or beyond national borders- especially in the North/South.
