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.

Capture

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.
