Your questions answered

Who will pay for the programme?
It is usually the students who pay for the programme, in the same way as they would for a school trip.
What level do the students need to be?
The programme is suitable for primary and secondary students of all levels from Beginner (CEF A1) level to Proficiency (CEF C2) level.
Will the language taught on the course help the students with their normal English lessons?
Yes. We design the programme especially for your pupils, based on what you think they need.
When is the best time to have the course?
We run programmes all year round, so you decide when is best for you and your school.
What does the school need to provide for the course?
Only things that you normally use in class. Our teachers will need separate classrooms, black/white boards, use of a photocopier and CD players. DVD players, overhead projectors and computer facilities are welcomed but they are not essential.
How many pupils will there be in a class?
There will be between 15 and 18 pupils in each class.
Can our school teachers observe the lessons?
Of course. We welcome teachers into the classroom to see how we conduct the lessons, but we do ask that you wait for the first few days to allow our teachers to build a good working relationship and rapport with the pupils.
