Teachers, exchange coordinators, and schools are responsible for organizing their GAPP exchanges. This flexibility allows you to plan your group’s travel to Germany and the hosting of your German exchange partner group in a way that best meets the needs of your students and school.
GAPP does not charge fees for short-term exchange services and does not arrange travel, such as flights or hotel bookings. All aspects of the program — including planning, travel, supervision, and logistics — are the responsibility of the school administration, parents or guardians, teachers/coordinators, students, and accompanying individuals. By participating, schools and individuals assume all risks and responsibilities associated with the exchange.
We strongly recommend that all GAPP teachers and coordinators obtain official approval from their school administration. Doing so integrates the exchange into the regular school curriculum and provides important legal protection and support.
