The Keycolab project was created to investigate how the European Key competencies for learning could be effectively evaluated in schools. This project, by its nature, also looked at how embedded these competencies are in schools and touched on effective teaching methods. Organisations in Spain, Romania, Finland, Belgium and UK collaborated in this research with Spain taking on the coordinating role. The project lasted throughout 2016 and 2017. The UK project focussed on Oxfordshire schools and took the theme of implementing the key competencies and evaluating them through a series of educational visits. All countries took a cross-curricular or thematic approach.
