At Roath Park Primary, we are extremely proud of our commitment to developing International Links. We recognize that our pupils are growing up in a global society where international cooperation and understanding are increasingly vital.
We aim to provide learning opportunities that will enable all of our children to understand that they are citizens of the world. As educators of young minds, we strive to raise awareness of the world around us, by opening as many "windows to the wider world" as possible. We wish for all children to be proud of their shared Welsh culture and to be excited about learning from our neighbors, near and far. We embrace fully the opportunities for respecting and celebrating global diversity.
Knowledge of other nations, cultures, and languages is enhanced through the use of communication technology. We value and celebrate our similarities as well as our differences. We hold strongly to the belief that children are very similar in classrooms across the world and hold the key jointly to a brighter future for us all.
Our Aims:
- To provide an informed awareness of countries, cultures, and languages
- To celebrate and respect the diversities of culture, belief, and heritage of all students and staff in our school and local and national communities
- To enable students to know, become involved in, and understand more about global issues
- To enable students and staff to experience other people’s daily life and enjoy regular contact with those living in different countries
- To reinforce the promotion of equal opportunities and equality
- To embed the global dimension into the whole school and subjects’ and faculties planning.
“At Roath Park, we strive towards excellence in all aspects of School life by creating a well-ordered, yet inviting atmosphere in which we help children to value diversity, to acquire a joy of learning, and to develop an enquiring approach as a foundation for good citizenship.”
