Scarisbrick Hall supported by ISA acknowledges the fact that we are at a critical time globally for education. The new normal under Covid-19 lock-down has changed the perception that children have of their world. With the present challenges, there is also an opportunity for unified thought. The Global Classroom unites the minds of children across the world, regardless of nationality, socio-economic background or geographic boarder it aims to protect the rights of the child, therefore inspiring them to reach their full potential.
The Global Classroom is partnering with local communities and supporters around the world to teach the unreached children of the world. We are reaching as far as South Africa, Saudi Arabia, USA, Nepal and Europe. The UN family, World Health Organization with Dr Tedros and Henrietta H Fore from UNICEF are helping to access 193 countries which this live broadcast aims to reach. Supported by ISA and partners we are now reaching a catchment of 150,000 schools worldwide. This is the largest ever digital classroom to date.
The filming of this broadcast will then be edited into a 30-minute programme that will be broadcast on all good social media channels. Our amplification reach is es:mated to have a global reach of 30 – 50 million, providing sessions on a range of themes covering: Our Global Planet, Global Mind, Global Arts, Global Heart and cutting-edge STEM themes. The overarching threads will follow the SDG 17, UN Life Learning and igniting a spirit of exploration.
Educational Outcomes and Philosophy
The core goal of The Global Classroom is to unify the minds of children around the
globe and to ignite a spirit of exploration in every one of them. We follow the
educational philosophy of RIVER learning that supports Resilience, Independence,
Values, Exploration and Reflection.
The learning inside The Global Classroom focuses on life lessons that will strengthen
and raise the aspiration of all of those taking part. Each session is focused on our key themes of:
• Global Mind (knowledge and mental wellbeing)
• Global Body (wellness and health including food and nutrition)
• Global Heart (social responsibility and ac:on)
These are unified by a spirit of exploration that excites and drives them on.
