5. All Saints RC School A Language College –French, German and Spanish are traditionally taught at the school. All the languages can be the first foreign language for some years. –Additional: Italian, Polish and Japanese

6. All Saints IMPRESSIONS “When we went to the All Saints Roman Catholic School, I was curious about what to expect. The homepage made the impression of a school attaching great importance to very good work by the pupils.” “After we had been welcomed by the head teacher, we had a short guided tour around the school.”

7. All Saints IMPRESSIONS “… both buildings were old and spread a nice atmosphere.” “After we had a quick look at the chapel we were split up into small groups of two or three people in order to visit several classes.”

8. All Saints IMPRESSIONS “I visited a Chemistry lesson in the 8th form. The classroom matched the old buildings because its furniture was all wooden.”

9. All Saints IMPRESSIONS “The discipline of the pupils was somehow missing in this lesson. The teacher had great difficulties in calming down the boys and girls. But this was different in other lessons.”

21.

22. St Peter‘s IMPRESSIONS “The food in the canteen was very good. You could choose between English and international meals.” “Pupils told me they choose German as a subject because it is easier than French.
