The German Promotion Project GIMAGINE further supports the work undertaken by the Language Hubs programme. Led by the Goethe-Institut,the cultural institute of the Federal Republic of Germany with a global reach, Gimagine has  been set up specifically to raise the profile of studying German in depth, up to GCSE and A-Level.  There has been a steady decline in the numbers of pupils being entered for a German GCSE over recent years, a decline that, as a consequence, continues at A level and Higher Education. Given German is a strategically important language to the UK, particularly with regard to business and industry, it is necessary that we have plans in place to reverse this decline.  

The GIMAGINE project will help to:

• support the professional advancement of German teachers
• fund learning German through scholarships
• provides schools with classroom materials and teaching resources.

Gimagine provides opportunities for both learners and teachers of German to improve both their linguistic knowledge and cultural understanding, through a wide variety of courses, competitions, resources and exchanges.
