Sweden

Having an English Speaking Profile our school,Paradisskolan,is a public school and was built 20 years ago.It's located near the city center of Trollhattan and 45 minutes to Gothenburg and has 500 pupils (6-15 years old). We are 20 teachers,who are well educated with education degree and experience,work with the pupils 7th, 8th, 9th grades on a full time basis.At first our school was for children around the area but now children are free to choose where to go to school. Therefore, we have students from other social economic groups such as newly arrived from Syria and immigrants that didn't have the chance to integrate in Swedish society. That way ethnic Swedish pupil also have the opportunity to gain more knowledge about different cultures and more understanding..The pupils are open minded and they always want to interact with other people and by taking part in this project we believe that our students will gain a new perspective about the environment and how to save our world from an environmental disaster. We also want our students to be able to share experiences with other students from schools around Europe and Turkey in this subject.  Furthermore, do we also want them to gain a deeper understanding for other cultures and backgrounds. 

 Trollhattan is a city well known for SAAB and Volvo aero motors,now called GKN and has guest workers from different countries such as the USA, the UK, South Africa and India.It's also known for technological development and we have a museum & workplace called Innovatum  science centrefor students, where they can develop their technical skills and the museum regularly perform exhibitions related to environmental questions and help people find a way to reach UN goal for a better environmental future.
