International Learning

We are incredibly proud of the international offering of the school and the collaborative opportunities it provides for our pupils, staff and wider stakeholders. Our school works closely with outside agencies and secures funding from a variety of additional funding streams to deliver our International Learning Strategy.

This strategy supports us in developing an outward-looking school community, keen to learn from best practice all over the world and one that is confident in sharing our own approaches, pedagogy and practice with others.

British Council - International School Award

British Council - International School Award (Foundation)

We were delighted to have been awarded the British Council International School Award (Foundation) in January 2025. During feedback, our assessor found that:

The application from All Saints' School is good and meets the criteria for the Foundation level of the International School Award. The school has already incorporated a global perspective in the curriculum to develop ‘ethical global citizens’. The International Strategy’s action plan includes both engagement with the wider community and the assessment of impact, using tools such as surveys.

It was good to see how you have extended the professional development links with the school in Reykjavik into your Year 3/4 classroom activities to support learning about different cultures. I thought your Antarctic Adventures project for Years 1 and 2 provided exciting real-life cross-curricular learning, with consideration being given to global issues, such as climate change.

The Year 6 trips to Singapore have many activities designed to deepen pupils’ awareness, understanding and appreciation of difference. Identifying the curricular preparation and follow-up for these trips is important in assessing the relevance them to developing an international perspective.

All Saints' School may already be able to apply for the Intermediate level immediately or very soon because this is based on activities which have already taken place.

I have much enjoyed reading your application. All Saints' School has made an excellent start on its international journey. I wish you every success.

British Council - International School Award (Intermediate)

We were delighted to have been awarded the British Council International School Award (Intermediate) in November 2025. During feedback, our assessor found that:

This is a very strong application from Ysgol yr Holl Saint - All Saints' School which meets the requirements for the Intermediate level of the International School Award. The commitment to global education is extremely high at the school.

It is excellent to see the high number of pupils involved in foreign visits which is unusual at primary level. The school-based “Antarctic Adventures” project was interesting to read about, as it encompassed so many aspects of the curriculum as well as involving parents.

It is lovely to see the global links celebrated on your website. Your international activities clearly support your stated school value of showing friendship to friends around the world. Well done on all the work you have done so far and good luck with your future international endeavours.
