It is sometimes difficult for our teenagers to imagine what “the adults’ world” looks like, and yet, after the baccalaureate, continuing in higher education often specialises towards certain jobs. Even though many students don’t always know what they wish to do after their studies, the advantage of providing them with information at the end of Middle School can inspire and give them ideas on what exists.

For our students in Grade 11, our Guidance Counselling team organised three companies visits last month, from different industries. One class visited the autonomous port of Yangshan, 1st global port with a terminal entirely automated, while another class paid a visit to the industrial and innovating Lesaffre group, a major global actor in the fermentation field. Finally, our third class discovered L’Oréal’s centre of innovation and research and laboratories.
