Modern Foreign Language School Trips
Language trips which allow students an immersive language learning experience are a valuable contribution to personal development. While the majority of students will benefit from French, German or Spanish Language Trips, the range of languages available in schools has led to an increase in diversity of trips we are able to feature. Along with plenty of options for South American Spanish Language Trips, and opportunities to study French in France, we can help with student trips to learn languages such as Portuguese, Chinese and Russian.
Language school trips provide students with a very worthwhile experience and enhance their understanding of modern foreign languages.

Languages for Career Development
Modern Foreign Languages (MFL) are becoming increasingly important in the workplace. Employers are seeking workers who can speak and understand another language. As companies are becoming increasingly multinational, and it is becoming increasingly commonplace for British companies to trade abroad, especially as we are a part of the EU and have recently strengthened our trade links with China, being able to communicate with another country is priceless. For your further information, the countries that are currently the top trading partners with the UK are as follows: The top five EU trading partners with the UK in October 2014 were; Germany, the Netherlands, France, Ireland and Belgium. The top five non-EU trading partners with the UK in October 2014 were; the US, Switzerland, China, Norway and Canada. Consequently, being able to comprehend one of those languages could make a vital contribution to a British company. Furthermore, City firms and organisations have explicitly stated that they are seeking graduates that speak or write Spanish, Chinese, Arabic or Russian.
