In Global Leadership at Earlscliffe College, our approach combines theory with practice to prepare you for decision-making on an international stage. You will engage in seminars, simulations and role-play exercises that reflect the realities of diplomacy and negotiation. Case studies encourage you to analyse complex global issues, while leadership workshops help you build the skills to communicate and guide others effectively. Small groups mean you benefit from individual feedback and support, ensuring you grow in confidence as both a thinker and a leader.
There is something for everyone on the schedule at Earlscliffe as it offers a balance of sports, cultural events, arts & crafts, enjoyable games, walks, and competitions. After the lessons for the day are over, all of these activities are planned and overseen by our staff. On-site, students participate in table tennis, billiards, badminton, volleyball, and basketball. Karaoke nights, football, softball, ‘Earlscliffe’s Got Talent,’ swimming, house contests, themed disco nights, ‘Minute To Win It,’ tennis, ‘Scavenger Hunt,’ rounders, ‘Jeux sans Frontières,’ ‘Bake Off,’ and quiz nights are just a few of the supervised daytime and evening activities we provide. Frequent beach excursions during the day and in the evening are a well‑liked feature of the week's events.
Earlscliffe students will enjoy full‑day excursions, as well as evening trips to bowling, laser tag or the cinema. Students may visit: the world‑famous cathedral city of Canterbury, take a river boat tour; go ice‑skating, visit Bluewater shopping centre; a theme park, Margate and Dreamland. Students will also be able to travel on the high‑speed, direct train to London accompanied by our staff. During the summer we have previously visited some of the capital’s most famous landmarks and museums, including the London Eye; the Tower of London; the British Museum; the London Dungeons; and the Natural History Museum. Each year excursions are reviewed in order to provide the best and enriching opportunities available. During excursions, students will also benefit from some remote-supervised free time in small groups.
The eight Victorian and Edwardian buildings on the Earlscliffe campus have been renovated to provide comfortable residential and learning spaces. Located in Folkestone’s West End, Earlscliffe is within walking distance of the beach and the Leas promenade. The town centre, with its shops and high-speed train link to London St Pancras, is also nearby.
Earlscliffe offers students quality student residences. Girls and boys live in separate, supervised accommodations. Rooms are mostly twin with a few select single or triple rooms and all have en-suite WC and showers. The ‘in-town’ campus means that students can walk between their classes, to meals, accommodation, and activities with ease.
