Korea Cultural Exchange
This experience in Korea aims to give students a global education and to enable them to develop skills in a setting outside of their comfort zone. Korea is a nation of growing importance and this programme is designed to equip young people with a real sense of cultural understanding and to broaden their horizons.
Discover the daily life of Korean students with a school exchange and gain a unique insight into how this country has become a global leader in educational standards. There are also a whole host of cultural activities to enjoy – a Nanta show, (hybrid of cooking and comedy) a K Pop experience and a Taekwondo demonstration. Plus we’ll discover some of Seoul’s palaces and markets as well as fascinating trip up to the DMZ- the border with North Korea where you’ll be able to see into the hermit kingdom. This trip also fits the criteria of the UK government’s Turing Scheme- contact us for further details.
