German School Shanghai Hongqiao Intercultural Exchange
A special day – entirely in the spirit of vocational education – was in store for the students of the classes with an economic and commercial connection at German School Shanghai Hongqiao (DSSH) on December 2.
The 10th, 11th and 12th graders of FOS classes had the pleasure of welcoming fellow students from two Chinese vocational schools – the Shanghai Commercial Accounting School (SCAS) and the Shanghai Pudong Foreign Affairs Services School (SPFASS) – for an intercultural exchange.
In the workshop, the Chinese and German learners discussed their career plans and presented their visions – to be a teacher, a police officer in Switzerland or to start their own business.
It was an all-round successful event that broadened horizons and showed how important vocational education is from both Chinese and German perspectives. The DSSH FOS students look forward to a return visit to the Chinese vocational schools.
With long years’ experience in FOS, DSSH offers teenagers the opportunity to obtain a general entrance qualification for a university of applied sciences in two additional school years after secondary school.
The training combines vocational practice with the learning of technical theory and qualifies students to study at a German university of applied sciences.
