Five students and two teachers per country will attend (as detailed in the budget). The 2 teachers are preferably a career counsellor and English teacher, so they can assist students during the practical part of the exchange. The students will be selected from the target group of 17-18 year olds in each school. The host school will involve 8 students in the activities and other students for organisation purposes.
