Pastoral Care
Pastoral care is of the greatest importance at the Summer School and all staff working with us are highly experienced at caring for young children aged from 6 - 13 years. From the minute your child is collected at the airport until the minute they board the plane to go home our staff will supervise everything they do. Everyone who works for us is police checked (CRB) and first aid trained and Mrs Richards, who did her nursing training at a London teaching hospital, leads the pastoral team.
Separate facilities for boys and girls
Mixed nationalities in each room to encourage use of English in an informal setting
Cosy and welcoming bedrooms
Dedicated and experienced pastoral carers available 24 hours a day
Excellent communication facilities, including personal computer log-in codes
We are now offering limited parent English places! We are delighted to announce that due to popular demand, in addition to our Junior only programmes we are now offering parent English classes! Many parents have expressed interest in accompanying their young children to the UK and in order to make our courses truly family friendly we are now offering a limited number of places for parents wishing to improve their English at the same time as their children. Parents are always separate from the junior programme and are taught by experienced and qualified ESOL teachers. Opportunity to visit children during designated visiting times.
