French Language Detectives

Modular and activity based - these courses give the best choice of balancing study with local visits and outdoor activities. Several versions of the course are available, corresponding to national curriculum levels.

Active learning: Practical situations promote better retention of the new language learned. Pupils will receive a study folder containing activities to complete in resort and some optional extension modules.

Real and relevant: The situations are designed around the area where your group stays. They are therefore relevant to the pupils' needs and likely experiences in their new, foreign surroundings.

Independent learning: Pupils are encouraged to interact with other people in the foreign environment to discover for themselved the answers to questions posed.
