Hello everyone. I'm Housna from Mauritius. I'm currently teaching in a Zone d'Education Prioritaire (ZEP) school, where most of pupils come from a low socio-economic background. The concept of ZEP was first implemented in France, in 2002 this strategy was introduced in several primary schools around the island especially those in marginalised regions. Various initiatives are being taken on behalf of administrators and stakeholders so as to provide quality education and create long life learners. The use of innovative pedagogies such as gamification and greening education are encouraged at school level. Teachers are provided with all the required resources such as tablets in lower primary, Sankoré is also available to improve the teaching and learning process. The integration of ICT in all subjects is encouraged. The curriculum promotes inclusiveness and all facilitaties are provided to teachers so that no child lags behind so as to meet the Sustainable Development Goals. My hobbies are sports and gym.

Hi, everyone! My name is Ayzhana, I am from Kazakhstan.
I teach our future civil engeneers.

@MYOUS633cc8ba80 Hello and welcome to the forum! Could you please tell which country you teach in ?

@Housna Hello and nice to meet you! Your experience sounds very encouraging! I would like to know if your school offers any teacher training programs related to the Sustainable Development Goals?

@SHAMZffaae3ea4a Hello, Ayzhana! I hope you will benefit from our forum community!

@Ana_moderator
Hello Anastasia,
I would like to highlight that the Mauritian National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for primary education highly emphasised on Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4). The vision of our Ministry is to ensure that an inclusive and equitable quality education is encouraged in all primary schools as well as promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.

It is important to note that by 2030, all young learners in our small island should acquire the knowledge and skills to promote sustainable development, including, among others, through education for sustainable development, sustainable lifestyles, human rights, gender equality, promotion of a culture of peace, non-violence, global citizenship and appreciation of cultural diversity and of culture's contribution to sustainable development.
Due to the fact that I work in a public school, so various trainings programmes are offered by the Ministry to educators to implement the SDGs at school. As one of the SDGs is to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts for a sustainable world. Therefore, the Ministry in collaboration with NGOs provide continous professional development for educators concerning 'Climate Change' so as to implement Eco friendly projects at schools.
My school will participate in a Eco friendly competition organised by the NGO named Coral Reef which is funded by the EU. The evaluation phase is in August 2024. This activity will be conducted on a whole school approach where teachers, students, administrators, non-teaching staffs, parents, the ZEP Unit, and other stakeholders will be involved to promote an Eco friendly school in the community.
The project will make students aware and conscious of environmental problems and boost their interest in caring for and improving the environment. It will also broaden their ecological knowledge in subjects such as energy, landscapes, air, water, natural resources and wildlife. Children will therefore develop a lifelong appreciation for nature and a commitment to protecting it and creating a sustainable future.

@hab*mugisha1 welcome to the forum, Jeremie! I invite you to review our current forum topics with insights and professional recommendations and join the discussions!

@Ana_moderator
Yes, I'm curious about TALIS results since it collects valuable info about recruitment, preparation and professional development, school-level policies and job satisfaction of teachers and principals. I'm always in search of support and needs of in-service teachers.

Yes, I hope this forum can become a supportive and intellectually stimulating space for teachers, encouraging more professional collaboration, joint projects, and classroom exchanges (at least virtually).

Hello Jeremie,

It's great to meet you! Your dedication to teaching Mathematics and training students in Robotics seems to be inspiring. Encouraging students to create and innovate with technology is essential in today’s world, and your efforts looks like undoubtedly helping them to achieve their full potential. By fostering creativity and problem-solving skills, you are empowering your students to tackle global issues and become future leaders in technology and innovation. I feel that your work in Rwanda is making a significant impact, and it's wonderful to see educators like you making such a positive difference in students' lives.

@Bousl2336873cb4 I teach English and social science to grade 4 and 5 students

@Mariam

Hi Mariam,

Teaching English and social science to grade 4 and 5 students seems to be a good combination. I feel you're helping to lay the foundation for their literacy and understanding of the world. Integrating these subjects can be particularly effective; for instance, using historical fiction or stories set in different cultures can make social science more engaging while improving their reading skills. @ANA-M57fa474ed2 post the museum of Anna Frank for those interested in history https://www.annefrank.org/en/museum/web-and-digital/ and provides a virtual tour https://www.annefrank.org/en/anne-frank/secret-annex/

Keep up the great work shaping young minds!

It's characterized by a strong emphasis on academic achievement and standardized testing, with students facing intense competition to excel. Beyond core subjects like mathematics, science, and language arts, there's a focus on moral education and extracurricular activities.
