Morning Schedule

11h00 – 12h30 3rd & 4th Lessons

The main difference between teenage and adult learners is that most school pupils attend a language school in order to supplement the English they have learned at school; in other words, to consolidate their knowledge of grammar and, above all, to speak the language. Teenage classes are therefore less dependent on course books, and teachers make frequent use of pictures, magazines and language games to motivate the students to practise the language.

Afternoon and evening schedule

The afternoon and evening schedule varies according to the programme. The choice of activities is greater in the summer and includes more outdoor, evening and weekend activities. Students following intensive courses have additional lessons in the afternoon in small groups.

Summer Campuses

During the summer there are three campuses:

Juniors (Ages 10 – 13)
Younger pupils attend our junior school, which is not far from the main college. Here the morning classes are adapted to a younger age group and a separate activities programme is arranged in the afternoons, supervised by the class teachers.

Holiday English Course Teenagers (Ages 13– 18)
Our teenage classes are held at Highlands College on the outskirts of St Helier. This is the local college of further education, with well-equipped classrooms, cafeteria and spacious grounds.

Intensive English Course Teenagers (Ages 16– 18)
Intensive course students take classes at our main college for adults . We only recommend intensive courses for more serious and mature young students.
