Short Term Exchange Programme of The Ministry of Education of Baden-Wuerttemberg to Baden-Wuerttemberg area
Coordinated by AFS Interkulturelle Begegnungen e.V.
In Cooperation with AFS Interculture South Africa
In 2006, AFS Germany was assigned by the Ministry of Education of Baden-Wurttemberg to coordinate this governmental short-term exchange programme. Since then, the programme has been running as programme of the Ministry of Education of Baden-Württemberg in cooperation with AFS Germany.
Main characteristics of the programme:
- Departure from Johannesburg: 3 December 2009
- Return to Johannesburg: 30 January 2010
- Reciprocal exchange, on a one-to-one family basis
- Duration 2 months (hosting) + 2 months (sending) to Badem-Wuerttemberg
- Age of the students: ca. 15-17,4 years old
- Willingness to learn German required; basic language skills are desirable
- Regular school attendance required
- Open to applicants from all school types
The short-term programme is based on a strict reciprocity of families. The exchange is consecutive, which means not at the same time. The exchange of families in a reciprocal programme leads to more intense exchange experience for the participants than in conventional, non-reciprocal programme.
Programme Fees:
The programme costs R22 200 (on condition of reciprocity) and R29 900 (if boarder or reciprocity is not possible). The programme is fully covered by the participants and includes:
- International travel (in Germany: to Stuttgart)
- Insurance
- Tuition fee (if necessary)
- Costs for selection and preparation process
- Chaperones (if necessary)
- Support before and during the exchange of all participants (student, sending and hosting family, also at school by the teacher)
Deadline: 20 July 2009
