Summer School in Bath

English language tuition, activities, trips and full-board accommodation for juniors in the beautiful, historic city of Bath.

English lessons

The Summer School programme includes 15 hours of English lessons per week, consisting of 3 hours each morning.

Each week’s lessons are based around a specific theme, such as ‘Music & Culture’, ‘Magical England’, ‘Image & Identity’ and ‘Imagination’. Lessons focus on speaking, listening, reading and writing through a number of communicative and creative language projects.

Our lessons are designed to encourage communication, enhance accuracy and vocabulary as well as prepare students for their after-school activities.

Our qualified and experienced teaching team plan the syllabus and deliver lessons according to the high standards of the British Council. We have an excellent team of teachers who are passionate and interested in making your English language learning experience enjoyable and productive.

At the end of your course you will receive a certificate and academic report.

Activity Programme

Option 1: All Activities

Most students will follow the full programme of activities, which includes five afternoon activities, three evening activities, one half-day excursion and one full-day excursion.

The afternoon activities could include visiting local attractions such as the Roman Baths, playing sports or games, and doing quizzes and treasure hunts. All students will have an orientation tour of Bath on their first day.

Option 2: Afternoon Academy

A second option is provided for students wishing to focus on their English and develop global citizenship skills. With this option, you have additional project-based learning sessions (1.5 hours per day) instead of afternoon activities. You still take part in evening activities and the Saturday full-day excursion.

During the project-based learning sessions, students work in teams to create a project, like making a film, designing a board game or crafting sustainable fashion and then showing it off on a catwalk.

Evening activities

Students will participate in 3 evening activities per week, such as karaoke, themed parties, drumming, dancing, and the Friday disco (the highlight of the week!).

Excursions

Bath is in a brilliant location to visit other popular attractions in the UK: Bristol, London, Oxford, Cardiff, Wells and many more.

Option 1 students have a half-day trip on Thursdays, and all students have a full-day visit on Saturdays.

Full-board accommodation

Most students stay in homestay accommodation with a caring host family, maximum 30 minutes travel from the Summer School.

Students share with up to 3 other students from the Summer School, usually of a different nationality, which helps them make friends quickly.

Our accommodation is full-board: hosts provide students with breakfast, evening meals and packed lunches on weekends, and school lunches at the Summer School are provided after class Monday to Friday.

Homestay accommodation is an amazing way to experience British culture, feel at home in Bath and improve English. You can be reassured that your child is cared for during their stay in Bath.
