With LGA to Scotland
Scotland is characterized by rugged mountain landscapes, between which glacial valleys (glens) and lakes (lochs) extend. The best-known examples are Loch Ness and Loch Lomond. The Highlands regularly host sporting competitions, the "Highland Games", with various contests such as rope pulling, hammer throwing, races or traditional dancing. They are accompanied by conventional music, especially the bagpipe.
Among the largest cities are the capital Edinburgh with its famous hilltop castle and Glasgow, known for its dynamic cultural scene.
Our partner in Scotland
We work together with a very experienced local partner organization. The counselors of our partner are there for you and will help you in all matters (host family, school etc.) We receive regular reports from Scotland and are always available for you and your parents during office hours - in case of emergency also around the clock.
Schools
The school system is similar to that of England, but the Scottish education authorities are independent. A school year runs from mid-August to mid/end June and is divided into three terms. Wearing a uniform is usually compulsory. Our partner organization offers several optional excursions which you can take part in during your time in Scotland. A small fee is charged.
Host families
Host families in Scotland are very hospitable. Tradition plays an important role and they value family cohesion. You will be treated as a family member with all rights and obligations. It is therefore very important that you are open, honest and helpful and follow the house rules of your host family. In this way you will quickly learn to know and love the Scottish culture!
