Social programme for Young Learners (age 14-17)
At SES, intensive lessons are combined with a programme of afternoon and evening activities, as well as Saturday excursions, giving students the opportunity to activate the English they have learned in the classroom.
With our Intensive English course which runs throughout the year, students benefit from 3 afternoon activities, one half-day excursion and one evening activity each week. Students arrive on Sundays and depart on Saturdays, so for every Saturday that the student is staying in Folkestone we organise a whole day excursion to London, Cambridge, Brighton or Canterbury.
Our English and Activities programme which runs during the Summer includes 5 afternoon activities and 4 evening activities each week as well as Saturday excursions.
Students enrolled on our English and Professional Football programme can improve their English and their sports skills with 12 hours throughout the week of professional football training from our F.A. qualified coaches, as well as 4 evening activities each week, one half-day excursion each week and whole day excursions on Saturdays.
