Accommodation

Juniors will reside at prestigious boarding schools such as Harrow School and St John's Beaumont. Accommodation will be assigned based on room availability, with the option of staying in either a private room (single room) or a shared room to foster friendships. Regular room checks and a focus on safety ensure that students are comfortable and well-supported throughout their stay.

Tuition

Our teaching for 11-12-year-old students is focused on interactive and task-based learning. You will be taught by experienced primary teachers, who are there to inspire and engage you with the subjects they are passionate about. Our courses run over a week, and during this time you will develop your subject knowledge through multimedia presentations, group work, games, problem-solving, and project work with a meaningful real-life focus. This teaching style has an increased focus on age-appropriate content and offers more opportunities for independent group work than our 9-10 courses.
