  • Tittle: The 2025 Academic Year International Education Grant Application is now open
  • UpdateDate: 2025.03.25      

To continue promoting international education in primary and secondary schools, the 2025 Academic Year "International Education Grant Program – Curriculum, International Exchange, and School Internationalization" is accepting online applications from January 21 to March 3. Schools interested in applying can fill out the project application form on the "Ministry of Education's Primary and Secondary School International Education Global Information Network" (https://www.ietw2.edu.tw/). Schools are encouraged to apply actively.

 

To align with the trend of educational internationalization and cultivate primary and secondary school students' "multiculturalism and international understanding," as well as enhance core competencies and global perspectives, the National Education Department has been subsidizing schools since 2021. This support helps schools establish reciprocal mechanisms through sister schools and promotes online teaching cooperation between senior secondary schools and overseas institutions. Through the internet, students can interact with their sister schools, integrating international education into their daily lives and expanding the methods and forms of international exchange in primary and secondary schools. In the 2024 academic year, more than 200 primary and secondary schools sent teachers and students to visit sister schools in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia, allowing them to experience different customs and appreciate the beauty of foreign cultures.

 

The National Education Department stated that in order to encourage schools to expand the scope of international exchanges with schools and countries, international education will be integrated into three major aspects: "curriculum," "international exchange," and "school internationalization." This aims to continue promoting the popularization of international education in primary and secondary schools, cultivating students with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for thriving in an international environment. Ultimately, it seeks to elevate Taiwan’s primary and secondary education to a high-quality standard that is "aligned with international standards and connected to the global community." The 2025 academic year International Education Grant Program is open for applications from January 21 to March 3. Schools are encouraged to apply within this period
