JUNIOR SUMMER PROGRAMMES
GROUP PROGRAMMES
Groups usually consist of 15 or more students accompanied by 1 group leader per 15 students. We offer free accommodation for 1 group leader per 15 students and airport transfers are free for groups of 15 or more students.
Group Leaders
Group leaders should be over 20 years of age and should have a good working knowledge of the English language. Leaders are expected to assist teachers and monitors in ensuring that students are punctual and attentive in class. They should be prepared to become involved in afternoon activities and to assist in the supervision of weekend excursions and evening outings. Regular meetings are held with the Course Director to discuss the week’s events and to deal with any problems that may arise.
Should a student require medical attention in a doctor’s surgery or hospital, the group leader will escort the student.
