Adcote school – partnership and exchange in the UK

In January 2015, three members of GVM staff were guests of the Headmaster of Adcote School, a private boarding school for girls, in Shropshire, England. Its purpose was a cultural exchange between teachers, knowledge sharing and familiarising our teaching staff with UK life.

Subsequently, in February 2015, two female students from GVM took part in a two-week study visit at Adcote School, where they had the opportunity to try first hand what school life is like there. They boarded with the other Adcote girls, attended classes, and enjoyed trips in the surrounding countryside.

In September of the same year, 20 students from GVM visited Adcote through a mutual exchange programme. They stayed with host families of students and spent just under a week experiencing learning, culture and the environment. The visit was a huge success, with all students reporting what a great time they'd had there.
