What is Shared Education
Shared Education provides opportunities for children and young people from different communities and backgrounds to learn together both in and out of school.’ DENI 2016
Shared Education enables children from different sectors to join together for curriculum based collaboration- for example to study a specific subject through a shared class, or to undertake a project
It aims to promote reconciliation through building relationships and sharing a variety of learning experiences
