The EDUS Educational Society is an umbrella organization associating Polish Supplementary Schools in Scotland. Our mission is to support education in the Polish language, history, culture, tradition and Christian values of children and young people in Scotland.
Our goals:
Support for Polish Schools
Promotion of Polish language education among the Polish community in Scotland
Organization of training and conferences for teachers
Workshops for students and parents
Creation of the EDUS Examination Center for children from all over Scotland to take Polish language exams at GCSE and A-level.
We launched a new campaign with General Consulate of Poland in Edinburgh called #I know who I am in November 2023.
The aim of the Campaign is to show the importance of maintaining children's knowledge of the Polish language and thus supporting their bilingualism.
The aim of the campaign is to promote bilingualism and learning Polish in Polish schools located in Scotland. Highlighting the benefits of speaking two languages in an accessible and clear way.
The campaign's addressees include:
Polish families with children aged 0 to 18 who hesitate whether to send their children to Supplementary Polish School or their children attend the Polish School, but the parents are not convinced about its advantages. Parents who are not aware of how much they do for their children when they give them their native language from birth. As well as highlighting the advantages of passing A-level and GCSE exams for young people aged 12-18.
