Unique LocationsWhether you’re looking to book at one of our
prestigious independent boarding schools or one
of our homestay programmes you can be sure that
each location will offer Young Learners a unique
experience.
Academic ExcellenceWe use an innovative, communicative approach to
teaching and all our teachers are qualified to teach
English as a foreign language (CELTA, Trinity TESOL
or equivalent). Lessons are fun and interactive with a
high level of student involvement as each class has
a maximum of 15 students.
WelfareThe safety and well-being of our Young Learners
is our number one priority. We are dedicated to
ensuring our students have a safe, happy and
enjoyable stay.
Nationality MixIn 2019 we welcomed students from over 85
countries including Italy, Germany, Russia,
France, Spain, Thailand, China and Brazil. When
Young Learners study at BSC they receive a truly
multicultural experience and make friends from all
over the world.
Skills for Life
Our programmes focus on more than just teaching
English. Students will develop a range of skills which
will help them through life. Greater confidence,
communication skills and the ability to work as part
of a team are just some of the benefits of choosing
one of our English programmes.

Student WelfareStudents’ safety and comfort are our priority
Close Supervision
In accordance with British Council guidelines and
our own welfare policies, all residential students
are supervised at all times and students are not
permitted to leave the centre without a member
of our staff or group leader, and without prior
permission. Those in homestay accommodation will
travel by public transport and our team or the group
leader will assist and accompany students where
possible. After evening activities, students will travel
in small groups in pre-ordered taxis back home.
Buddy system
At our residential centres, each team member is
directly responsible for the welfare and happiness
of their buddy group. They check that group-led
students and especially individual students are
eating properly, looking after personal hygiene,
keeping their rooms tidy, and also account for them
at roll call and during fire alarms.
For both residential and homestay students we place the
highest priority on providing an exceptional standard of care
and supervision to ensure the welfare and safety of our Young
Learners. Our team are always present to ensure our students
have a safe, happy and enjoyable time and each centre has a
qualified first-aider on-site.
