Russian network

Moscow

Welcome to the Specialist Schools and Academies Trust Russian webpages!


This network aims to give Russian teachers an opportunity to share ideas, experiences and resources. At the same time the network will provide a forum for discussion and events for promoting and celebrating Russian and good practice which is taking place.


We are always looking to expand these pages, so please send us any materials, news items or other relevant resources you have for the site.
