International Visits Programme - Sixth Form

As part of our international curriculum, we have a varied and progressive programme of visits and exchanges in every key stage.

Our Sixth Form visits are the pinnacle of student’s experience at the school with a range of options.

Overseas work experience

Our work experience exchanges involve students spending two weeks developing their language whilst benefitting from the full immersion offered by working in a variety of placements with schools, bakeries, pharmacies and banks.

The experience allows them to gain confidence and experience in their chosen language. Currently there are exchanges to France, Spain, Germany, Italy and China

UK study based & Cross curricular visits

Geography and Biology students have the opportunity to enhance their studies by taking part in fieldwork with the Field Studies Council at Slapton Ley and Dale Fort. 

We also have a range of cross-curricular residentials that aim to support students wider studies and appreciation of the world.  Our long running visit to Poland and Vienna supports students understanding of the events at Auschwitz. 

The visit to Geneva, takes in the dual focus of the particle accelerator at CERN alongside visiting a number of UN Agencies. Our new visits to Iceland and Singapore aim to give students an appreciation of different cultures, geographies and economies.
