The future diplomat

(15-17 years)
School: Dawlish

The future diplomat is tailored for those committed enough to embark on a career on a global stage.
Diplomacy aids effective communication, particularly in negotiation. It also improves relationships,
helping to build and develop mutual respect across cultures. In turn, this can lead to more successful
outcomes in business, politics or domestic life, making situations less difficult or stressful.

OISE Dawlish is located in the centre of this pretty Devon seaside resort, close to the beach, and it
has a warm family atmosphere.
