Edinburgh Castle - High School in Schottland

With LGA to Scotland

Scotland is characterized by rugged mountain landscapes, between which stretch glacial valleys (glens) and lakes (lochs). The best known examples are Loch Ness and Loch Lomond. Sporting competitions, the "Highland Games", take place regularly in the highlands, with various competitions such as rope pulling, hammer throwing, races or traditional dancing. They are accompanied by traditional music, especially bagpipes.

The largest cities include the capital, Edinburgh, with its famous hilltop castle, and Glasgow, known for its vibrant cultural scene.

High School Schottland - Eilean Donan Castle

Schools

The school system is similar to that of England, but Scottish school boards are independent. A school year lasts from mid-August to mid/end of June and is divided into three terms. Wearing a uniform is usually compulsory. Our partner organization offers various excursions that you can take part in during your time in Scotland. A small fee will be charged.

Host families

Host families in Scotland are very welcoming. Tradition plays a big role and value is placed on family cohesion. You will be treated like a family member with all rights and duties. It is therefore very important that you are open, honest and helpful and follow your host family's house rules. This way you will quickly get to know and love the Scottish mentality!
