GSE
(Global School Exchange) is an student exchange organisation in Germany
that specialises in the placement of students aged 14-18 to high
schools in Australia and New Zealand. GSE provides a professional
service to students and parents in relation to all aspects of student
exchange.
Our philosophy is focused on the individual student. The student's
needs and personality are taken into account, and form the basis of
matching the student's individual program, to a successful outcome for
personal development and success while staying in Australia and New
Zealand.
We have arrangements with both public and private schools that offer home stay or boarding accommodation.
