Welcome To Anglophiles!

We are one of the leading educational travel companies.

For more than 40 years we have run English language and activity programmes in the UK and abroad for young overseas students aged 7 to 17.

This has given us a wealth of experience on which to build for the future.

Our mission for the future:

• to provide the highest quality educational and travel experiences for young people from all over the world • to meet their needs and aspirations - and to make a difference to their lives

How do we achieve this?

By being a company with a difference • Caring, professional and modern • Having a wonderful team of teachers, youth leaders, and professionals working at all levels to make our vision a reality.

• Highly experienced - with an impressive track record • Creating, new interesting, educational programmes for students

The trust factor Sending children abroad for an educational or activity holiday demands trust.

Trust from the child’s parents in their local agent. And trust by the local agent in the UK Company responsible for organising the stay.

For more than 40 years many thousands of parents, and many agents, have entrusted their children to us. We have never lost sight of the responsibility that we carry. We will always live up to the trust put in us to ensure that the children in our care are safe and well cared for.

We hope that we may have the opportunity of working with you. It would be a pleasure to include your students in our range of programmes.

They are totally integrated into the school system and take classes in three to four subjects. In England, students at this level, normally take between 3 or 4 subjects that they study in depth. Students are required to attend all the lessons they are timetabled for and it is their responsibility to ensure that they arrive on time and complete all homework assignments within the required time.

They must take the same exams as their English classmates. It is essential that the students are motivated and willing to put in the time required to fully maximise this opportunity. A good level of English is required to be able to follow the classes at this level. Depending on the school, the students may be required to wear a uniform.

When lessons are not taking place, the host family assists the student in organising their free time, which is spent discovering the town and area, and meeting up with their English school friends.

This will present many opportunities for the student to put into practice their increasing knowledge of everyday situational written and spoken English.

This programme is recommended for students who are independent and motivated, as well as already possessing a certain fluency in English.

SUPERVISION Our Local Organiser will be available to the students should they require any assistance.

ACCOMMODATION AND MEALS Our Local Organiser places each student in a carefully selected and inspected host family. They will be treated like a member of the family.
