Two Week Summer Pre-School English Course for 11 - 17 year olds 19th August - 3rd September 2025
Life-long friendships begin here...
Our most popular course is in its nineteenth year and acts as preparation for UK school boarding as well as a means of improving or acquiring English language skills. Students follow a timetable of academic studies in English, trips or excursions and carefully selected activities while building friendships with fellow students.
Emphasis is placed on a communal spirit that promotes inclusion and teamwork while nurturing those life skills such as study skills and independent learning. Furthermore, this 2-week experience provides students with a taste of boarding life and provides the perfect transition course if they are commencing their studies full time at RGS Surrey Hills. Above all, students progress with a greater CEFR English language level and a true insight into UK school boarding.
