- Living in a time of fast change educators need to update their approach to teaching to make their classes more appealing and enjoyable to a computer native generation of young learners.

- Global Perspectives is a cross-curricular programme aimed at facilitating the role of the teacher and turning students into active learners.

- Global Perspectives encourage critical thinking and nurture the students' imagination and creativity.

In a globalized world young people ought to be aware of the issues that affect humanity to be able to propose a course of action to improve life without losing identity, principles and beliefs.
