Pupils at St Patrick's in training

'World Olympic Dreams' have made a half hour programme looking back at some of the best stories from their athletes over the last few months. It's also a great chance to see some of the schools in the Olympic Dreams network.

The programme features St Patrick's School in Kenya, which is twinning with Highcliffe in Dorset, in a report by Kieran Fox. You can see young athletes at the school in training in this picture which was taken by the production team.

Loktak Christian Model School, which is twinning with Ballykeel Primary in Ballymena, is shown in a report by Sanjoy Majumder about champion boxer MC Mary Kom. 

Matthew Pinsent explores one of the Olympic Dreams school partnerships between Jehue Gordon's school Belmont Boys in Trinidad and their UK partner Sandwell Academy in West Bromwich.

The BBC and British Council are working together to help schools twin for 2012. Join World Class to get involved.
