European Youth Parliament (EYP)
European Youth Parliament (EYP)
At the English School, we are proud to support the European Youth Parliament (EYP), one of the largest platforms for political engagement and cultural exchange for young people across Europe. As an inclusive and empowering initiative, EYP encourages students to engage in critical discussions about pressing European and global issues, while fostering mutual respect, intercultural understanding, and active citizenship.

European Parliament Ambassador School (EPAS)
We are delighted to announce that our school is becoming a European Parliament Ambassador School. We will soon be part of a growing network of around 2000 certified European Parliament Ambassador Schools, 5000 teachers appointed as senior ambassadors and almost 35000 students as junior ambassadors that are learning, teaching and sharing the EU’s values.
The network offers schools a great opportunity to exchange best practices and cooperate in implementing the programme. The Ambassador Schools Network is part of a wider community cooperating with the European Parliament, notably via the platform together.eu. The network allows schools to be involved in a wide range of activities organised by the European Parliament, its Liaison Offices and its institutional partners and to connect with various European, national and local entities and civil society organisations.
Interested students will become Junior Ambassadors, who will promote discussion and learning about the EU, its members and institutions, its impact on our day-to-day lives and how they can influence it. They will do this by organising cultural events, debates and linking with other EPAS schools and colleges across the EU. Not only will this develop our students’ political knowledge, but it will also give these Junior Ambassadors great work experience – and skills for life – as researchers, project managers, event organisers, campaigners and promoters.
