"Expo pour l'Ecosse" is the first French series for Scottish schools at S1 and S2 (ages 12-14). We expect that the vast majority of Scottish schools to look at copies of the Pupil Book - and for many to adopt it as their French course. There is one book for S1 and differentiated books in S2: "Vert" for lower-ability pupils and "Rouge" for higher-ability pupils. These Pupil Books are part of the only course which is developed specifically for S1 and S2 French - which will make them extremely popular with teachers. It builds up pupils' grammar and language learning skills. It provides lots of fun tasks which pupils can do on their own. It provides a real flavour of French culture - a feature which teachers and students love!
