Approved project and signed agreements

After months of work, finally our project begins to take shape thanks to European funding and the signing of bilateral agreements between the different partners.

Only a few months ago, No One Offside did not even have a name, and its promoters had only a remote hope of setting up an international project. However, after a few months of intense work, the end of spring brought us a strong bid to obtain European funding and the signing of bilateral agreements between our schools (Collège Hector Berlioz of Paris, IES Siglo XXI of Leganés -Madrid- , and Castelbrae Communtiy High School of Edinburgh).

“A dynamic, diverse school, a school that promotes European citizenship needs this type of project to be possible.”

The finishing touch was the positive evaluation of the project by the European Commission and the obtaining of the demanded funds for its financing.

A promise of future

The Berlioz School team, which is at the origin of the project, was able to present it to its members thanks to the unconditional support of the Academie of Paris (The Council of Paris), which had just launched an earlier Erasmus + project that made possible the meeting between the professors of Berlioz, Siglo XXI and Castlebrae.

Fortunately, this first impulse was supported by management teams that are very committed to projecting their respective schools and the difficulties inherent in priority education establishments. As the Principal Mr. Boukhelifa points out: "a dynamic, diverse school, a school that promotes European citizenship needs this type of project to be possible."
