Our Policies

Please see our Safeguarding Policies Handbook in the footer for an overview of our rooming guidelines and policies.

Our Course includes:

• Online testing before students' arrival
• 15 hours of English lessons in the classroom over 3 lesson days
• Maximum class size: 20 students
• Lesson Materials
• PLUS End-of-Course certificate

Since students are accepted and taught in closed groups, it is very important that group enrolments are done with students of same or similar levels of English language proficiency.

Our Mini Stay Programmes feature a range of options for social activities and games, which can be tailored to the group’s preferences. The selection of activities will depend on the group's profile, the general programme, and the amount of free time available. These activities are designed to ensure an engaging and enjoyable experience for all participants, complementing their academic programme and enhancing their stay.

Our Essential package includes our base programme with full-board accommodation, PLUS staff, and English lessons. Unlike the Classic package, it does not include any predetermined excursions or attraction visits. Instead, it offers complete flexibility for you to create your own customised experience — either by adding excursions and activities from our Add-On Catalogue or by organising your own independent programme on non-lesson days.

We offer a dedicated airport transfer service to ensure a stress-free arrival experience for your group.

Our service includes a meet & greet, where your group will be warmly welcomed upon arrival, followed by a direct transfer to a convenient drop-off point. This way, your group will not need to worry about directions or find their way with heavy suitcases.
