STAT E SCHO OL PLACEMENT
We work with a number of local schools who are
happy to accept our international students. The
school will offer the full curriculum to students who
are at a language level high enough to cope with the
demands of a programme at a native level of English.
This course is for EU/EEA students from the ages of 15-17 who
would join the GCSE or A level study period. GCSE year students
study at least 10 subjects and A level students study 3 or 4 subjects.

State schools in the UK run a three term year that starts in
September, January and April and students can join in for one, two
or all three school terms.

We will arrange accommodation and help with any issues that arise
during the student’s time here and try to match the student with a child
in the family that attends the same school to ensure full integration. We
can also arrange a guardian, if needed, for an extra cost.

Some of the schools we work with are:
•    Pate’s                          •   Cotswold School
•    Balcarras                       •   Chosen Hill
