Eastbourne Summer School

• Summer English courses

Programs in the camp are designed for the summer period, it is also possible to take short courses. The course can be booked for both an individual student and for educational groups that plan joint travel and studying.

In addition, it is possible to participate in several combined courses:

• Tennis Academy (summer)
• Special program Royal (short term)
• Olympic Program (short-term)
• Research course (short-term)
• Intensive English course (short-term).

After graduation students can go to the classical Triniti exam, and in case of successful delivery get a firm certificate confirming a high level of knowledge.

During one week of studying, students attend 15 academic sessions: they are held in small groups (up to 15 people each). Each class has a qualified EFL teacher who has considerable experience of working with foreign students. The emphasis is on the intensive development of communication skills: classes are specially selected in such a way as to bring together representatives of different nationalities and cultures. The children and adolescents from 9 to 17 years are admitted to school.

• Trinity Exam

We offer students the opportunity to pass the Trinity College Oral Examinations (GESE) and to get a qualification in spoken English. These exams are authoritative among educational institutions in many European countries. Our experienced EFL teachers test students, distribute them to appropriate levels and provide an additional five hours of intensive spoken English each week. Students are fully prepared for oral tests, which are conducted by an external examiner Trinity.

This course is designed for a group of 15 students. Dates of studying are June 19 - August 28.
