Methodology
|
All communication between schools will be facilitated over the internet using state of
the art technology that is already used in many UK schools. In the subsequent pages we will outline how each of the
objectives will be achieved. It should be noted that different age groups of schools will fit different types of
partnerships, what a child learns in kindergarten will be developed upon in Primary and that in turn will be
developed upon in Secondary school. This provides a complete package to a group of schools (kindergarten, primary and
secondary) in the same area so that at every stage of a child’s education they have the opportunity to learn
something new about Ghana. This implies that the programme has a 14 year cycle.
The following provides a brief overview of the opportunities in place that go to facilitate the programme:
