About this programme
This summer camp in Bury St Edmunds is for ages 10 to 17 and balances 21 hours, or 28 lessons, of English a week with a busy activity schedule. Lessons include project work and presentation skills, and weekly progress tests track how students are doing. Afternoon choices range from drama and baking to martial arts and zumba; sports happen weekly, and 2 evening socials, for example bowling, take place each week. Each week has a half-day cultural excursion, and a full-day trip on Saturdays comes once per 2-week course.

Students take an online level test before arrival and can follow a Cambridge FCE or IELTS syllabus option.
