New case studies
This is your opportunity to showcase your school's work to other schools, and to learn from other schools' partnerships. We will be updating this site regularly with new case studies, and welcome all your examples of how your pupils are interacting with your partner school and using the French language across a variety of areas.
To have your school's work featured on this website please email the Inter-Action team at scinter@ssatrust.org.uk.
