The „Schools: Partner for the future“ initiative is an attractive programme for students to experience the German language and culture at an early stage in life.
There are some obvious advantages for students and teachers. The PASCH programme assists in providing books, multimedia equipment, and other teaching and learning equipment.
Students will have the opportunity to benefit from regional activities, also with partner schools from other countries, or to attend language courses in Germany. They can also participate in various online competitions on the PASCH website www.pasch-net.de and win attractive prizes.
Hence, PASCH is a great way to get a little bit closer to Germany.
