More than 20 years of commitment to students at Lycée Marguerite Jauzelon in Réunion Island
for the training and integration of young people
Over 750 internships undertaken and 90 scholarships awarded by GBH: A long-term commitment to classe préparatoire students at Lycée Marguerite Jauzelon (formerly Lycée Bellepierre)
For more than 20 years, GBH has been a partner of Lycée Marguerite Jauzelon, meaning that it has played an active role in the education of classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles students, who are preparing for competitive university admission exams. This year, eight well-deserving students have just received a scholarship to enable each of them to fully fund their internships in South Africa.
GBH is proud to present the classe préparatoire aux grandes écoles students at Lycée Marguerite Jauzelon in Saint-Denis who have just received a scholarship at an official ceremony. This scholarship, presented by Michel Lapeyre, GBH Indian Ocean and Africa Director, recognises eight particularly well-deserving students this year and covers all foreign-internship costs. "Every year, we recognise the top students in each section. We are contributing to the success of eight students by funding this foreign internship", explained Michel Lapeyre, who established this partnership in 2004.
Each year, GBH offers between 40 and 50 internships to students. This year, 41 students did an internship at a GBH subsidiary in June. As a result, the Group's subsidiaries have taken on more than 750 students since the start of this partnership.
However, this partnership does not stop there, as it then also provides long-term sales, marketing and management internships in GBH companies for students from classes préparatoires who have been admitted to prestigious business schools. Over the years, GBH has also hired graduates who have returned to the island from these schools.
This partnership illustrates GBH’s long-standing commitment to schools, classes préparatoires and universities, in order to support young people in getting training and joining companies.
The Group undertakes these efforts for students and young graduates under the "Overseas Future by GBH" banner (known as the "Avenir Outremer by GBH" locally).
A partnership programme for post-baccalaureate students, with schools and universities in Overseas France.
