Applications to summer schools

Summer schools in the UK are run exclusively for international students. They involve a programme of English classes, sports, educational activities and excursions, followed by evening activities and outings. One of the many benefits of a summer school is that English lessons do not stop when lessons do. As well as taking English classes during the day, you carry on learning and practising English during social activities, free time and meal times.

Summer schools in the UK are designed to be interesting and thought-provoking as well as enjoyable and entertaining. They offer you a range of experiences with no time to be homesick or bored. Courses are usually held in residential boarding schools when the pupils have returned home for the summer.For many international students attending a summer course is also a great way of seeing what life is like at boarding schools in the UK before committing to an independent school, or for older students to learn more about studying in the UK before joining university.

There are many different types of summer school; some are aimed at helping lower-achieving pupils improve their English, whilst others coach high achievers for entrance to top schools and universities. Certain summer schools are sports based, attracting the most athletic students, and some focus on a rounded experience with a good mix of language lessons and fun extra-curricular trips and activities.

There are many different types of summer course available for individuals or groups, and we will do our utmost to help you find one to suit your needs. Contact us with your requirements or for more information.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

One of the good things with Study Links is the interaction, which does not appear to be as readily present with other agents.

Nessa Nedd, Study Links Homestay
Without question, Study Links have given me the best care during my study period in the UK. I feel like I have joined a big family. I have made lifelong friends from all over the world. School in the UK now feels like home and I have been given all the help I needed.

Sam, Study Links Student, Ackworth School
Study Links care to my daughter was aptly balanced without spoiling her, giving her boundaries while she went through her studies in the UK, thus strengthening her independent thinking. Nevertheless, in special situations that required swift intervention and assistance, they were appropriately there for my daughter to her immediate and long term benefits.

Mrs Chung, Parent of Grace
I have been with Study Links for many years and have enjoyed most of the students sent to me. Where there have been difficulties, I have found Study Links helpful and understanding. I like the feeling that I am part of a community and the summer BBQ and Christmas fuddle have been good opportunities to meet with other homestays and exchange anecdotes.
