Schools can now start to apply for the DCSF International School Award 2010. Open to all schools, including primaries, the Award is an accreditation scheme for curriculum-based international work such as school partnerships.

Applying for the Full ISA is a two stage process, involving submitting a plan of activities proposed for the forthcoming school year (2009-2010), followed by a portfolio of evidence to demonstrate the international work carried out over the year (deadline for submitting portfolios is July 2010). Action plans must involve a minimum of seven planned activities.

For comprehensive details on making your application, please visit the DCSF International School Award page on the Global Gateway website.
