This year ÌÒÉ«ÊÓƵ is delighted to be offering our popular summer school courses, which will run throughout July and August.
We offer a number of courses, depending on age and the level of English you have and what you would like to attain.
Our very popular Summer Vacation Programme includes trips and time with the local day children who attend day camps whilst still allowing time in a classroom setting to improve and extend our international visitors’ English language skills. This course is for children aged 8 to 11 and 12 to 15.
The Academic Preparation Programme includes a higher level of language training as well as developing skills for future school and university students. Classwork will include interview practice, debating sessions and university visits. The course is for pupils aged 13 to 15 and will run in two-week blocks.
New for 2022 is a specialist Basketball Academy – our history as a top sports school with all the associated staff and facilities mean that this course will be a fun way for youngsters to develop their skills on the basketball court. This course is for children aged 13 – 15 and runs in single weeks which can be booked together with our Academic Preparation Programme.
