A Guide to Our Junior Courses

Open to students between the ages of 9-12, our junior courses offer a taste of British boarding school experience and the ultimate summer adventure. Through residential living, interactive learning sessions and exciting extracurricular activities and day trips, our courses are designed to help students flourish in their academia, explore subjects that they are curious to learn more about, as well as help them to build on a range of soft skills such as creativity, confidence, communication and so many more!

With courses running at a week in length, students can choose to extend their stay with us by exploring more than one subject or one location - it’s just one of the ways we can help to provide the summer of a lifetime.
