(Students aged 16+ join our adult programmes)

Children from 5-9 join our special Early Learners groups.
Older students are placed in classes selected by age and level.

What will I do?

​Everyone must study English every morning (20 lessons, 15 hours, each week, Monday-Friday).

If you want to do more you can add:

• afternoon social activities (ages 5-19)
• afternoon private lessons (14+ years)
• Weekend excursions (book at reception after arrival)

Where can I stay?

​If you are under 16 you must stay with your own family, or friends approved by your parents – for example perhaps your parents have come to the University for the summer or you might be visiting your aunt and uncle here in Cambridge. Or maybe you’ve been invited to stay with some friends of your father’s.

If you are 16 or over, you can come to Cambridge alone or with a friend and stay in Homestay. There’s a range of accommodation to suit all tastes and all budgets – check the accommodation page.
