Clevedon students have earned funding to link up with schools across Europe.
Clevedon School has become part of the European Commission-funded Erasmus+ Programme which will give them the chance to meet students from twin towns Epernay, Ettlingen and Middelkerke.
It will end with them creating a magazine to illustrate what each school, town and region has to offer.
Headteacher Jim Smith said: “We are absolutely thrilled about this.
“It is a fantastic opportunity for Clevedon School to work even closer with the Clevedon community and for our students to explore opportunities right across the continent.
