Schools which have undertaken Global Citizenship learning and have also taken primary school appropriate action on some aspects of global citizenship and who intend to continue doing so may apply, at any stage, to obtain large durable Global Citizenship School signage. The signage displays the school’s commitment to Global Citizenship Education and there is a cost of €100 to cover signage delivery costs. The signage itself is very colourful, A1 in size and made from diabond, a tough semi-metal and long-lasting product suitable for external or internal display usage. All that is required are 4 screws and a good location.
Schools organise their own ‘Signage Ceremonies’ and may invite a special guest to cut the tape or present the signage. The signage ceremony can take place in the school hall or GP room and fit in with the school’s own calendar of events. Some schools have the signage outside or inside or near the entrance/reception. Please see here for pictures of the GCS signage.
A ‘signage ceremony’ suggestion is that schools will display or tell about what they have done and what plans they have and the Special Guest will then present the signage to the school. Singing, dancing, poetry or short speeches by pupils are always popular!
