One of the most popular countries for educational trips is France, with the rich culture and vibrant sights there is plenty to learn and do in France!

Many schemes are run throughout the year which offer new ways of learning french for schools who want to embark on educational travel in France or any other country where they can learn the language and get involved in learning about different people in the world.

The opportunity to practice speaking French in a fun and supportive environment can be the key to language learning. There are some schools that give you an opportunity to visit a primary school in France so that the students can interact and practice their language skills. France is an all-time favourite school trip destination.

Groups can go for a one day trip to Normandy or a full tour of Paris, and can include a visit to the wonderful Disneyland to give students something to look forward to! School trips to France are not only relatively reasonably priced for everyone ...
... but they also have something to offer everyone; from French language groups, to history, to leisure, culture and tourism and so much more! France can be considered as one of the most exciting countries in Europe with an array of rich history, art, architecture and food that will fascinate the students, no matter which region they visit.

With French being the most taught language option in schools, what could be better than bringing your students to have a real taste of France and the French way of living by staying with a host family? The option of bringing students to stay with a host family can give them a real sense of life in France and enable them to have new experiences which they would not be able to achieve by staying in a hotel. Another advantage of staying with host families is that you will have more exposure to the everyday use of the language so that students will be able to enhance their language skills on a daily basis.

There are many other popular countries that students may want to visit and these include Germany, Spain and Italy, to further enhance their language skills. There are a wide range of European destinations that offer a range of sights and sounds for both students and teachers alike. In France you can visit the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Disneyland and Arc de Triomphe, and in Germany there is the famous Berlin Wall and Hamburg, which is rich in culture.

Whichever country you choose for an educational visit you can rest assured that you will be enlightening your students with a new experience to develop and enhance their language skills, and further improve their foreign language skills to converse in another language more fluently. The need for multilingual employees is becoming increasingly popular and learning a language can help to further increase job opportunities and also offer you further scope for working abroad.
