L'école est membre du réseau des écoles associées de l'UNESCO et du programme international Eco-Schools. Les projets éducatifs et européens visent à diffuser et à appliquer des connaissances fondées sur les principes de la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme, en mettant l'accent sur la liberté et la pluralité du jugement critique, le développement durable, le bien-être et la solidarité. À cet égard, nos domaines prioritaires sont la diversification des méthodologies et des stratégies d’enseignement et d’apprentissage pour améliorer les compétences aux niveaux cognitifs affectif et psychomoteur, la volonté d’innovation, la promotion de partenariats éducatifs aux niveaux local, national et international, la création de conditions propices à la citoyenneté européenne active en associant étudiants et enseignants à des expériences d’échange et de recherche, au partage de bonnes pratiques, au développement de compétences sociales et académiques et à la motivation des professionnels pour promouvoir le travail interdisciplinaire et en équipe et contribuer à réduire les taux d’abandon. ESL compte un nombre considérable d’enseignants expérimentés dans la coordination de projets européens. Par conséquent, le besoin occasionnel de remplacer un membre de l'équipe serait facilement adressé. Cependant, notre intention, et l’une des priorités de l’école, est d’associer à ce projet non seulement les enseignants les plus expérimentés en coordination et en travail direct avec les élèves, mais également les nouveaux enseignants qui ont manifesté leur intérêt à relever ce défi. ESL possède une vaste expérience dans les principaux domaines sur lesquels porte ce projet, à savoir les départements des arts visuels, du multimédia, du graphisme, de l'informatique, des sciences et de l'environnement et des langues étrangères, avec des enseignants expérimentés, actifs et motivés, qui savent engager leurs étudiants dans le travail du projet, qui peuvent apporter leur savoir-faire et qui sont également réceptifs au partage de bonnes pratiques, pour aider à la construction de ce projet spécifique.
