Educational leave programmes

Learn English on the beautiful island of Jersey under the Bildungsurlaub scheme

St Brelade’s College is a recognised provider of educational leave programmes (Bildungsurlaub) in certain federal states of Germany.

If you are a German employee, you can benefit from English learning on a language trip in Jersey under the Bildungsurlaub scheme. Through this, employees can receive five or more extra days paid holiday per year.

The requirements (e.g. number of lessons per week, application period) vary from state to state. We recommend that you check in the Bildungsfreistellungsgesetz (Law on Educational Leave) whether you meet the requirements and discuss the key points (period of time, substitution) with your employer in good time before submitting the application for your educational leave.

The school is a recognised provider of these programmes by the following federal states of Germany:

Baden-Württemberg
Berlin
Bremen
Hamburg
Niedersachsen
Rheinland
Saarland
Sachsen-Anhalt
Schleswig-Holstein
