Immersion Programme
Bring language learning to life with our French School Visit Experience — a unique chance for students to visit a local French school, join a classroom lesson, and take part in interactive cultural activities with their French peers. Designed to build confidence and a love of languages, this short educational visit gives pupils a real taste of life in France. Ideal for Key Stage 2–3, it encourages cultural understanding and authentic use of French.
British Normandy
Memorial Partnership
We’re honoured to partner with the British Normandy Memorial and the Winston Churchill Centre for Education and Learning, working together to deliver meaningful, curriculum-linked experiences for schools visiting Normandy. Through this partnership, we aim to inspire students, deepen historical understanding, and create lasting educational connections that bring the stories of D-Day and its legacy to life.
