Games Legacy plan
On Your Marks, the Scottish Government Games Legacy plan for Glasgow 2014, sets out a strategy to make Scotland more ‘active, connected, sustainable and flourishing’:
- Active - getting Scotland more active, encouraging healthier, stronger communities
- Connected - developing international links through education and culture
- Flourishing - improving skills and developing economic opportunities
- Sustainable - enhancing biodiversity and delivering a ‘Green Games’.
Connected - the legacy for learning
The 'Connected' strand of the plan encourages all educators to develop links and exchanges to leave a legacy of greater intercultural understanding and engender pride in Scotland’s rich cultural diversity. It also encourages practitioners to use the context of the Games to develop health and wellbeing, literacy and numeracy skills, and to explore issues such as international education, modern languages, citizenship, democracy, human rights and sustainable development.
