Europe presents a wonderful opportunity to bring learning to life through direct engagement with some of the world’s most important cultural and historical places. Instead of only studying history, politics or societies in the classroom, students explore world heritage sites, museums and significant landmarks that make these subjects real and meaningful. Language learning is brought alive through immersive chances to practice French, German, Italian, Spanish or Greek in everyday settings. At the same time, Europe’s rich history of scientific and technological achievement provides clear examples that support STEM learning and encourage critical thinking and problem-solving. The continent’s vibrant arts scene, from galleries and architecture to music and theatre, inspires creativity and personal expression. A European tour brings together learning in Humanities, STEM and the Arts, supporting your students to develop a wide-ranging global perspective and become confident, globally aware individuals.
