Microsoft Global Learning Connection
The Microsoft Global Learning Connection is an annual virtual event that brings together students from all over the world in a variety of online activities designed to build as many global links, and accumulate as many virtual miles, as possible in just 48 hours. The students participate in video calls that feature cultural presentations, dance and poetry performances, and general Q&A. The event reinforces the trust’s mission to encourage curiosity and appreciation of diversity.
Bangladesh Partnership
Thanks to the Connecting Classrooms grant from the British Council, YVPS—alongside two other primary schools in Devon and Cornwall—formed partnerships with a cluster of three Bangladeshi schools in 2018. The partnership teaches and encourages students of all years the qualities of being positive global citizens.
