It was a pleasure recently to visit Cults Academy and talk to S3 pupils about the horizons broadened by language learning. We were joined by a final-year student from the University of Aberdeen, who enthused them with stories about her placement year in France. As many do, she had found her time abroad transformative. Being part of daily life and culture in another country is a hothouse for language skills.
