Sixth Form French Exchange Our Sixth Form students have just returned from an unforgettable French exchange in Gap, nestled in the beautiful HautesAlpes region! During the week, students immersed themselves in French language and culture, living with host families, exploring local life, attending an ice hockey match, and spending time in French schools. They even helped teach simple English lessons in local primary classes, gaining confidence, independence and valuable communication skills along the way. It was a truly enriching experience that many have described as a highlight of their Sixth Form journey so far.
