Abstract
Schools are being challenged to place on increased emphasis on the Eur opean dimension in education, and science has a part to play in the pr ocess. This paper outlines one possible approach to the issue. A lesso n on fermentation in winemaking and breadmaking was presented, through the medium of French, to a fourth-form biology class of 14-15-year-ol d boys. The response of the pupils was very positive. Other topics in key stage 3 and 4 science where European examples could be used to ill ustrate scientific ideas ore also discussed.
