ABSTRACT
Tension between the central government in Spain and the Catalan region’s desire for greater political autonomy has put the spotlight on Catalan primary schools’ language policies, which include immersion in the Catalan language, seen as a key element in Catalan identity. New data explore the attitudes of a sample of primary school teachers to the ways that ICT could be used to develop global citizenship and the possibility of linking schools in Catalonia with schools outside the region. Data suggest that while teachers believe that such links would be motivational for children, they already believe that they have ample opportunities for exploring global citizenship through the curriculum and that school linking is not currently a priority.
