| Summary: | Lifelong learning (LLL) is of international concern and schools are an important, however, a neglected context to foster LLL. The aim of the thematic analysis was to explore how teachers define LLL, how they perceive their own role in fostering LLL, which strategies they use to foster LLL competencies in their students, and if and where they can learn about LLL themselves. The sample consisted of 15 teachers and headmasters. Even though teachers already apply a lot of strategies to foster LLL competencies in their students, the results indicate the need to increase awareness of the influence teachers have. |
