LIVE ABROAD, DISCOVER MORE
The High School programmes are considered among the best educational and most popular English language immersion programmes for schoolchildren.
The School Year Programme is open to students aged 10 to 18 years, who wish to study in an English-speaking country and is available at a wide variety of private and state secondary schools. Students have the option to stay in selected local host families or in a student residence located on Campus. The educational systems offer a broad range of academic subjects in science, business, social, technology and the arts plus a wide range of extra-curricular activities and sports.

Here are the 3 most important benefits of studying abroad:

1. Students will attain a higher level of English Language proficiency.

2. Students naturally become more fluent in English. This is the perfect way to improve students’ speaking and listening skills.

3. Students will gain more confidence for life and become more resilient.

We have the ideal destinations for students who wish to live a unique school, sport and life experience abroad and we are happy to assist in finding the most suitable solution for them and organising their experience either for a short period or one term (three months only), a semester or for a whole school year, with accommodation in a host family or in a college.

During their experience abroad students increase their mental strength and activate their leadership and intelligence. They improve their personal and sport skills and in their use of English language. Our mission is to prepare all students for future challenges on a solid educational foundation.
