At UWC Maastricht we place a lot of importance on learning that happens outside of the classroom. As we are an IB school all of our students complete the elements of CAS (Creativity, Activity and Service). We place particular importance on service and our students have access to opportunities with over 100 external service providers in Maastricht. A large number of our students undertake the challenging International Award. As we are an Eco School many of our students are also involved in work involving the environment and sustainability. CO-CURRICULAR Student leadership is fostered through opportunities like Student Council, Model United AND EXPERIENTIAL Nations and Student Led Initiatives. Student Led Initiatives are conferences that take place on campus throughout the year and cover topics such as International Peace, Sustainability, EDUCATION Theory of Knowledge, The Arts, Science and Gender Issues. Our students also arrange school IN THE IBDP wide Culture Weeks to celebrate the diversity of cultures that we have on our campus. Our students are also exposed to a variety of guest speakers and debates through two forums that we offer “Say What Lectures” and “Global Issues Forum.” Other opportunities for development that our students are exposed to is Critical Engagement (personal and social skill development); Youth Social Entrepreneurship (covered over 5 days) and Project Weeks.

    News The Essential Daily Briefing Education UWC Atlantic College: the elite school in a castle that’s helping educate young refugees Gilded towers: St Donats Castle Wales (Sarah Savage) byEtan Smallman 2 months Wednesday April 12th 2017 Glitterati parties In the 1930s, St Donat’s Castle in the Vale of Glamorgan, south Wales, was the venue for lavish parties attended by converted by Web2PDFConvert.com everyone from John F Kennedy and Frank Sinatra to Clark Gable and Charlie Chaplin – when it was owned by American newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst. But if you visit the imposing 12th-century estate today, you are more likely to come across one of the most international assortments of students in the UK than a glittering bash.

The boarding school attracts wealthy teenagers whose parents pay fees of £58,000 for the two-year International Baccalaureate programme (alumni include the King of the Netherlands, two serving members of the Chinese Communist Central Committee and the offspring of Queen Noor of Jordan). But more than half of students receive some kind of scholarship – among them a contingent of refugees who have fled warzones in pursuit of a top-class education and sanctuary in the remote seaside castle.

  • UWC Dilijan: One Absolutely Happy School
    UWC Dilijan: one absolutely happy school Better to learn and understand other people when they differ from us more difficult than those who belong to the same community with us. But at the same time is much more useful: when we come into contact with representatives of other traditions and cultures, different mentality, understand the common and the differences between us — horizons inevitably expand, the mind becomes more flexible, leave prejudices and the tendency to stereotypical thinking. The result is much more than knowledge about how different countries celebrate the New year. The policy of multiculturalism, growing since the 1970s years in many countries of the world has always been through understanding the diversity of cultures, identities, points of view — to come to an understanding of unity and wholeness. And thereby reduce tension in the society, to reduce the number of conflicts to reach the realization that any two people, no matter how they differed from each other, are part of humanity. And, therefore, their culture can interact, intertwine, to become part of human culture. Of course, education can become a powerful driving force in the process of bringing people and cultures. This thesis represents the mission of the UWC, or the United World Colleges founded in 1962 and is today recognised around the world. UWC to date is 17 schools and colleges on four continents and more than 60 000 graduates. UWC Atlantic College (Wales, UK) Source: uwcmahindracollege.org Netherlands and Swaziland, India and Singapore, Costa Rica, and Norway — in all these countries there are institutions and UWC. In 2014, the first UWC College appeared in the former Soviet Union, in Transcaucasia, midway between the capitals of Armenia and Georgia, in the Armenian city of Dilijan.
