At school they have lessons with the English teacher and the professional ones before the departure / leaving.Test their professional skills and achievement on the spot and on their return with the Europro Certification Exam. This exam is a real plus when they apply for a job. Employers look for such qualifications. Help our students to get up to B1 European level to pass the English oral test to get the BTEC National. 2. Encourage our students to get a job abroad and dicover a new country. Discover a new culture through citizenship, personal enrichment and world understanding.Boost students coming from a rural environment in sending them abroad for a first work experience. It would help them to become more independent and responsible. 3. Improve our school courses Perpetuate our European section in English (for catering students, service option)Promote our vocational courses, improve and help the development of our vocational high school among employers in our area. 4.Support students' ambition and thus increase the access to higher education (BTEC Higher National diploma, for example)Motivate young people again, add value to their professional educational background, slow down failure at school and the early school leaving without any diplomas, or to fight xenophobia. 5. Develop partnerships between our vocational high school and the hotel companies to ensure the project existence.
For several years, our vocational baccalaureate students in catering - waiter and cook - have had the opportunity to complete a 5-week vocational training period in the UK and present the Europro Certificate. The servers are now in the European Section. The ERASMUS + grants we have benefited from 2014 have made it possible to send more students to experience abroad and and the latter makes it possible to perpetuate the situationt.
