The Comenius Programme is named after Jan Amos Comenius (1592-1670), often considered the father of modern education. He was a teacher and a philosopher but was forced to leave his home in the Czech Republic, because of his religion, and he fled to Poland. He later travelled to many places in Europe, including Britain, giving advice on Education.

The Comenius Project aims to develop knowledge and understanding among young people and education staff of the diversity of European cultures and languages, and the value of this diversity.
