Academic Programmes

We offer a range of programmes in academic subjects, which can be taken independently, or alongside an English Language programme. Programmes are available both for full-time students (including A-Level, GCSE, and Foundation), and for students wishing to take a shorter preparation or revision programme of a few weeks' duration.

The maximum class size for academic subject tuition is 6 students, and many students are taught on a 1:1 or 2:1 basis.

The Weekly Enrichment Programme

Students on long-term programmes join the weekly Enrichment Programme on Monday afternoons. The programme alternates between guest lectures, study skills and PSHCE sessions, and a range of social activities - last term sessions included a trip to Cotswold Wildlife Park, mini golf, pumpkin carving, and a cartoon drawing workshop.

Students are always welcome to suggest activities that interest them: we also have a number of hobby clubs that run during lunch breaks each week, including crafting club, debating club, and guitar club.
