Launch of Taking the Next Step - a Blueprint for Educate Together Second-level
Last Friday, 19/06/09, Educate Together launched its Blueprint for Second-level schools, Taking the Next Step, as part of a continuing campaign for recognition from the Department of Education as a patron at second-level.
With over 10,000 pupils in 56 primary schools, Educate Together is now ready to take the next step. Like their primary counterparts, Educate Together second-level schools will incorporate a comprehensive Ethical Education curriculum. The Blueprint spells out how this will result in an inclusive, intercultural learning environment where second-level students will critically interact across viewpoints within a common language of respect.
