2. What is the Comenius project all about?
The Comenius Programme is named after Jan Amos Comenius
(1592-1670), often considered the father of modern
education. He was a teacher and a philosopher but was forced
to leave his home in the Czech Republic, because of his
religion, and he fled to Poland. He later travelled to many
places in Europe, including Britain, giving advice on
Education.
The Comenius Project aims to develop knowledge and
understanding among young people and education staff of the
diversity of European cultures and languages, and the value of
this diversity.
