It was a very beautiful day of 19th November, 2012, when this beautiful journey began with the first ever workshop conducted by the British Council Pakistan Team at Myer's College, Chakwal. The workshop was aimed to focus on the British Council Schools Online project and Professional Development courses through Connecting Classrooms portal. The Myer's College nominated its two teachers, Mr. Wajahat Ahmed, director ELI at Myer's and Mr. Muhammad Tahir Naeem Khan, IT teacher at Myer's, to attend the informative workshop. The participants took part with keen interest and learned very much new techniques and learned about professional development courses. During this workshop, it was taught how to interact with different schools of the world via latest informational and communication tools.

After the successful completeion of the 'ICT Activity', Myer's College Chakwal started working on the international project with the first international partner school from India named as Ryan International school, Faridabad. The theme of the project was to conduct a simulation of the SAARC Conference in both the colleges. We, at Myer's assigned different groups of students, each SAARC country and asked them to prepare country profiles and boards of the different committees of SAARC. After the materials had been prepared, a summit was organised at the Myer's, where student delegates discussed the different issues. It was a spectacular experience for the students.
