By joining the Future Friendly Schools community, you will inspire your school community with a meaningful vision for student engagement, and gain access to resources, new insights, collaboration opportunities, and global recognition.
Through the certification process itself, educators at your school will challenge themselves to develop and showcase teaching practices that align to the values of global citizenship, student voice, and environmental stewardship, and incorporate the approaches of immersive ICT use and project-based learning. Your school will receive a personalized online portfolio page, showcasing highlights of your practices for others to learn from, share, and comment on. You will also receive a confidential summary of responses from educators and students to their respective surveys, providing insights into areas of excellence and improvement.
Fostering collaboration with like-minded schools is a key goal of the program, and is supported with a community search and discussion board allowing member schools to post invitations for collaboration and find partners to work with. TakingITGlobal will also be providing special invitations for Future Friendly Schools to have early access to and guided participation in new educational programs.
Schools that successfully certify at the Bronze, Silver, or Gold levels will be highlighted on the Future Friendly Schools web site and in a variety of education publications across the globe at the end of each program year. Schools will receive a media kit to support creating recognition of their achievement in local media. Plaques and decals will also be available to order to showcase certification achievement in the school.
