Magenta Vocational High School was granted the title of Lycée des Métiers des Services Administratifs (BO N° 29 of July 19th 2012). It prepares its pupils to their diploma of Baccalauréat Professionnel (Level IV, the equivalent of the BTEC national) in Office Management and Administrative Work. The number of students will be between 360 and 375 at the start of the new academic year in September 2014.
The programme aims at sending 15 pupils in their final year of Baccalauréat Professionnel in Office Management and Administrative Work on a four-week workplacement, out of the 22 compulsory weeks spent on placement. We plan to send 10 students in the UK and 5 other students in Italy in Turin.
For the students of English, the placements will take place in the town of Totnes (UK) or in the towns nearby. The 15 mobility/placements will take place at the same time during the work placement period of the final year. Our British partner, the Totnes European School (sending partner) with whom we have already been working for several years, will welcome our students, monitor and supervise their placements in companies situated in the county of Devon. Consequently we are asking for grants in England for 10 final year students preparing their Baccalauréat in Office Management and Administrative Work.
As for the students in Italian, a preparatory visit was done in May 2012 by Mrs Tournier - chef de travaux and Mrs Ozanne, a DNL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) teacher in Italian. It allowed them to understand how the Xarxa FP network works and how important it is to go through this association which is very helpful for the students'mobility. Indeed, it looks for placement and accomodation places, proposes adapted means of transport and public transport tickets. Moreover, it is present in case problems may occur. The teacher who is in charge of the European Class in Italian (Mrs Ozanne) also participated in a study visit in October 2012 to deepen her knowledge in educational CLIL methods (Content and Language Integrated Learning). We are thus asking for grants in Italy for 5 final year students preparing their Baccalauréat in Office Management and Administrative Work.
In their final year, our students have to do 2 periods of workplacements during 4 weeks. The Mobility/Placements will take place from Monday, January 12th 2015 to Friday, February 6th 2015.
This experience in an English or in an Italian company will be of great importance for our students who will later have to adapt themselves professionaly to constant changes in the field of economy. Such a professional and linguistic experience will permit the students to discover and develop their own skills and mature their European consciousness.
