## Summary

Singapore’s Ministry of Education is monitoring protests in Europe before student trips to France and Germany, and will decide whether they go ahead based on current assessments and official advice. The situation matters because some demonstrations have escalated into clashes and property damage, raising safety concerns for travelling students and staff.

The language-centre immersion trips are planned for November and December, with about 10 to 20 students expected on each; both include educational tours and homestays. MOE is consulting Singapore’s embassies in France and Germany, International SOS and local education partners, and says it has given schools travel guidance and may adjust itineraries. A small number of other school trips to Europe are also planned.
