Junior Leader Scheme for Youth Circus is a project of three youth circus organisations: Galway Community Circus, CIRQUEON and Cirkus LeGrando for young people aged 15 - 18 years to gain experience, knowledge and confidence in the area of circus teaching and youth work that they can put into use by becoming junior leaders in their organisations. The idea came from a need for motivated junior leaders in all three partner organisations. We called the project ABCirk within our schools and also in the communication to the outside world.There were five young people and two circus tutors from each organisation participating in the project for the whole duration of two years between autumn 2016 and summer 2018.The objectives of the project were to bring young motivated youth circus members together and teach them skills to become junior leaders in youth circus classes in their circus schools.We wanted to give them the experience of international cooperation and through this finding the differences and similarities to circus teaching in different circus organisations. They were working together as a group of peers learning from each other as well as from the participating tutors.The group of 15 young people stayed the same for the whole duration of the project. They took part in three training modules during the two years. In Galway in May 2017 they learned about video making, group dynamics and safety in teaching. In Prague in November 2017 they got deeper in theory of (circus) pedagogy and learned about using games as a tool for teaching and learning in (circus) education. In Brno in June 2018 they helped with setting up and taking down of a youth circus festival, assisted with the organisation and also taught workshops to younger youth circus members from three European countries.The learning process, methods and games were documented in videos taken by the young participants and shared online: https://bit.ly/2Nv1dAZ The young participants stated in their evaluations that the project gave them an insight in circus teaching, raised their confidence in teaching and awareness of the need to adapt the lessons to each concrete group. They could see the progress made during the two years and also in between the three training sessions. Majority of the Czech participants felt much more confident in English and all 15 participants felt more comfortable in international cooperation by the end of the project. Most of them were also offered work in assisting in circus workshops at festivals and other events by their schools which makes it likely for them to get more paid work in the field in the future.There have been a great interest from other youth members of the partner schools to take part in this project. The three schools and another Belgian youth circus school submitted a new application for a KA2 project through the Czech National Agency that would use the learning of this project and move it further in a direction of peer to peer learning.
