International students visits to Rothamsted Research

Rothamsted Research has supported activities involving international partnerships between schools.

Since 2005, Sir John Lawes and Ndeke High School in Zambia has become partners in order to enhance teaching and learning in both schools, promote international awareness and understanding and a sense of global citizenship and develop the global dimension of the curriculum within the schools. In 2010, students from both schools visited Rothamsted and engaged with our scientists working on the topic of Food Security.
