With a total of 290 participating schools, India has the largest number of such partnerships among the 56 participating countries. South Africa has 266 and Ghana is third with 260."In the UK there is a lot of interest in India, as it is an emerging economy," said Ruchira Ghosh, head of global school partnerships and school communication for the British Council in India. "With our historical connections and education systems being similar there are linkages." "The government is keen to use this as an opportunity for students to improve their English and computer skills as a lot of the interaction is online," added Ghosh.
