This event brings together secondary level teachers, school leaders and teacher educators to explore sustainability education ‘beyond borders’ including whole school and inter-disciplinary pedagogical approaches to sustainability education. The Autumn School is hosted by Friedrich-Schiller Gymnasium, Pirna Germany (FSGP), the TAP-TS partner school who has led on whole school approaches. FSGP is located near to the Czech-German border, and is renowned as a bilingual school and is a champion of democratic, anti-racist and sustainability education.

The 5-day face-to-face event takes place both in the school and in out of school learning places. Through interactive workshops and reflection sessions educators will learn about each other’s experience and teaching contexts, and critically engage with a range of TAP-TS learning and teaching materials. In addition to the focus on whole school approaches, workshops on sustainability education and decoloniality, entrepreneurship education, digitality and serious games will engage participants with a range of interdisciplinary pedagogical methods and materials. Moreover, activities in the local area will provide hands-on sustainability education experience and insights into this environmentally and culturally unique border area.

English is the main shared language of communication in this multilingual event. Participants are also invited to interact in their preferred language/s, and to translate and translanguage
