Muthill Primary School and the International School Award

  • Submitted by: Jim Fairlie, Perthshire South and Kinross-shire, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Friday, 01 October 2021
  • Motion reference: S6M-01443

That the Parliament congratulates Muthill Primary School on receiving reaccreditation of the British Council’s International School Award, which it has held since 2012; notes that the International School Award is designed to reward schools that have shown a commitment to embedding international awareness and understanding; recognises the relationships that Muthill primary has built up with other schools in France, Japan, United States, as well as a particularly close connection with the Juliet Johnston School in Ghana, which has involved staff exchanges and the creation together in 2019 of a YouTube project called the Global Goals Song in advance of COP26, which meets in Glasgow this year, and considers that involvement in the International School Award is an excellent means of learning both about the differences between countries and the ways in which we can all work together to build a better world.
