A number of schools with partners abroad are taking the opportunity to visit each other and develop their links further this summer. You can follow two such visits in Thailand with Forthview and Pirniehall Primary Schools:

School and community group visits

Hosting International Visitors

Do you receive requests to host groups from abroad? The International Unit can deal with these requests on your behalf.

Most study visits are charged a fee so that the hosting school or centre can receive a payment for participating.

Forward the requests to the International Unit with a note telling us whether you'd like to be involved in the visit or not, and we'll take it from there.
