Project Summary

The current project is the result of a previous collaboration between both partners, Collège Georges Pompidou and IES Pedro de Tolosa. These two institutions have been exchanging groups of secondary education students in the past. In 2019 we have already done a three months student exchange with 3 students from each country

We have two key objectives part of this project:

– International heritage: Culture and traditions
Europe has a common history that is present in its culture. We want to find common places and differences in Spain and France. Arab interactions are also important in our history and are present in several of our students

– CLIL and STEM
As part of this project we want improve our knowledge and experience teaching Science, Technology, Engineering subjects and Mathematics (STEM) under a Content and Language Integrated Learning framework Funds will permit us create a solid framework that will confirm our bilateral commitment.
– The school in France teaches Spanish. IES Pedro de Tolosa is trilingual school in English and French. German is not offered as a language in Spain.
The students that take part in the exchanges are mostly 16 years old.

These objectives take into account low income families:
The schools are both internationally focused and have a group of students living in low income families. These students are not able to afford any exchange activities. We think all of our students have the right to participate in international exchanges. The current project will permit us fund the expenses of students coming from low income families.
