| How
ISSE Works |

|
Children
of all backgrounds participate in the ISSE program.
A partnership between a primary school in one
country is formed with a primary school in another
country. A small team of eleven or twelve year
old children and an adult from another country
visits a school for approximately a month. Each
child lives with a family with a child of similar
age and goes to school with their host.
The accompanying adult is also
hosted by another family. At a mutually agreeable
time the school sends a similar team to the school
from which the visitors came, to live under the
same arrangements. The visiting delegation share
their culture with each grade level.
Selection
The selection of children will be based on
factors such as: |
|
| • |
Interest
in learning about new cultures and becoming
friends with children of other cultures. |
| • |
Willingness
to communicate their experiences with their
school when they return. |
| • |
Sufficient
independence and emotional maturity. |
| • |
Age
of eleven at departure time (should be recommended). |
|
|
Expenses
All living expenses of the visiting children and
adult are paid by their host families. Parents
of the visiting children provide passports, travel
expenses, clothing and spending money. ISSE is
both an enriching and attainable opportunity.
