For Schools

Our UK-wide career roadshows offer students a multi-faceted program that provides insight into the relevance of German in professional life.

German Club Starter Kits will include a German Club Handbook (digital or hardcopy) for club leaders, gamified learning challenges, badges, and awards for students, with different learning routes according to students' ages. Previous knowledge of German is neither necessary for students nor teachers. We further offer comprehensive professional training and incentive trips for teachers and heads who start up a club. We can also help set up a club directly at your school!
