Schools working together in Film Technology

International Primary Schools, Secondary Schools, and Colleges working together on projects.

International Primary Schools:

Castleknock National School,

  • Dublin, Ireland

“During our interview, we asked the headteacher what advice she would give to a school thinking of undertaking a project with Imaging Partnership Education. She noted that she couldn’t have anticipated how positive the project would be. Her advice to other Imaging Partnership Education schools is to “be prepared to have a go… just don’t be afraid to try it.”


St. Patrick’s National School,

  • Glencullen, Dublin, Ireland

“There is now an opportunity to provide new, rich and authentic learning opportunities through Imaging Partnership Education, for the children in our community to develop and thrive as ambitious, capable learners who can communicate effectively.”


St. Brigids Girls National School,

  • Foxrock, Dublin, Ireland

“One of the key motivations in becoming an Imaging Partnership Education School was the impact of the pandemic. A lack of any formal education for a prolonged period meant that students couldn’t communicate as well. “Capturing how our pupils felt virtually and communicating through the on-line medium of teaching we recognised there was an absence of talk.” This was evident across all key stages and all academic levels. “It has widened the learning gap even for our MAT* pupils as they also now struggle to express themselves confidently and show a lack of self-assurance.”


Primary School Chemin Ver,

  • Casablanca, Morroco

“It’s alarming that we have seen such a change in our children and now even in the most simplistic of ways, such as self-regulating themselves and communicating, has become a challenge”.


School Al Amana,

  • Tangier, Morroco

“We now want to become a school that empowers our teachers too as we want this to transfer to our children.”


Stella International School,

  • Vienna, Austria

“Actualise was pivotal to be able to empower the children to have the confidence to follow their own pathways of learning. But for many of our children, they don’t always have those role models in their oral interactions and so we wanted to support them to scaffold the language they use and develop their active listening skills.”


Innsbruck Elementary School,

  • Innsbruck, Austria

“As an Imaging Partnership Education school, Rachel described their mission to support their pupils to have “opportunities to practise Imaging Partnership Education, purposeful talk and meaningful interactions between one another and beyond to develop children’s passion for talk and talk for a purpose, to become healthy and confident individuals with all they are faced with.”


Elementary School Viktor Kaplan,

  • Graz, Austria

“Imaging Partnership Education is now a priority for teachers and SLT across this school”


St. Gilgen International School,

  • St. Gilgin, Austria

“With the support of their Imaging Partnership Education consultant, they are working together to create an action plan to develop their Imaging Partnership Education vision in classrooms and the school that will be sustained over time.”


St George’s British International School City Centre,

  • Rome, Italy

“Staff have all contributed to the school vision for Imaging Partnership Education and pivotal to this is the engagement and inclusion of our wider community. “So far, all our staff have used the Imaging Partnership Education Framework and produced targets for all pupils.”

International Secondary Schools:

St. Louis School Colonna,

  • Milan, Italy

“There is a real enthusiasm amongst staff towards placing Imaging Partnership Education at the heart of teaching and learning provision.”


Primary School Govi,

  • Genoa, Italy

“This can be seen in the recent success of their poetry week. “We know that poetry is something the children find really, really hard, and we wanted them to get opportunities to express through words, and we felt that Imaging Partnership Education would fit with that nicely … poetry is not something children often read at home, it’s not a book you’d often pick up. And so that was another reason why we wanted to make it a whole school focus.”


The International School Estepona,

  • Malaga, Spain

“Working collaboratively, Imaging Partnership Education champions, from EYFS to Year 6, used the Imaging Partnership Education framework and its four stands as a planning tool and mode of structure for their project.”


International Academy of Madrid,

  • Madrid, Spain

“Throughout the week, we introduced different parts of the Imaging Partnership Education framework. The children left the week having an understanding of the physical strand, the social and emotional strand, the linguistic strand”


Gerbert d’Orlach Primary School,

  • Barcelona, Spain,

“It has allowed pupils to develop a greater understanding of what Imaging Partnership Education is. And I think it’s really easy to think of Imaging Partnership Education as talking. But there’s so much more to it than just speaking.”


Vonsild School,

  • Kolding, Denmark

“Students explored the physical strand of Imaging Partnership Education on day one. Days focused on the linguistic strand of the Imaging Partnership Education framework with an exploration of phonic techniques.”


Waldorf International School Copenhagen,

  • Copenhagen, Denmark

“Working with Actualise was a decision that this school has wholeheartedly committed to. ”


Nørrebro Park School,

  • København, Denmark,

“There was a purpose for the children to do it … they knew that the assembly was at the end of the week and everybody would be there.”


Haukeland School,

  • Bergen, Norway,

“It is clear from talking to our head of years, that students’ performances were intended to “push them outside of their comfort zones”


Sagene Primary School,

  • Oslo, Norway

“Once they’ve got over that initial fear of what it would be like, that helped them to feel confident enough to want to perform to the rest of the school”
