Lidl launches Oxford University scholarship

[Still Waters]

Lidl has launched a new scholarship for Oxford University students to study German. 

The budget supermarket chain announced plans to fund one graduate who enrolls on a masters degree in Modern German and sponsor competitions with cash prizes of up to £500 for undergraduates from next year.

It comes as education experts warned of declining numbers of students learning the language in schools, which a British Council adviser suggested was partly because pupils still associate Germany with war.

Beware: They will probably ask for ID's from everybody in the room, before giving the scholarship and prizes!
