  • High-quality study and recreational facilities - many classrooms have the latest interactive whiteboard technology, there is a formal library with views of the English gardens, a study centre with the latest study materials, DVDs, magazines and books.
  • An authentic UK boarding school experience - students will wear a uniform, follow a busy timetable and take part in a hectic social calendar of sports, activities and tours around the UK, giving students a true insight into life in the British education system
