Why Choose This Programme?
Academic Integration
Students will attend a local secondary school, following the same daily schedule as local pupils. They will study a variety of subjects, such as Maths, English Literature, Sciences, Geography, Media Studies, Business Studies, and even French. By fully integrating into the local curriculum, students will gain invaluable academic experience while improving their English language skills in a natural, supportive environment
Cultural Immersion with Host Families
The true essence of this programme lies in the immersive experience of living with a carefully selected Northern Irish host family. Each student will have the unique chance to live like a local—sharing meals, taking part in family activities, and spending Sundays experiencing life as Northern Irish families do. This daily interaction creates a powerful environment for language learning and cultural exchange, allowing students to rapidly improve their fluency in English while gaining a deep understanding of Irish traditions and lifestyle.
Exciting Saturday Excursions
Every Saturday, students will embark on thrilling excursions designed to showcase the very best of Northern Ireland. From exploring the natural wonder of the Giant’s Causeway to historic visits to Belfast and Derry, these trips offer both educational insights and exciting activities that students love. Whether it’s climbing walls, bowling, enjoying a fun park, or solving puzzles in an escape room, each outing promises adventure and opportunities to bond with fellow students.
Comprehensive Support System
We understand the importance of safety and well-being for students far from home. That’s why our programme includes a dedicated bilingual monitor who is available 24/7 to support both students and parents. Whether it’s academic guidance or personal care, our team is committed to ensuring students have a fulfilling and secure experience throughout their stay.
Language and Cultural Growth
Over the course of their stay, students will see noticeable improvements in their English speaking and listening skills. Beyond language, they’ll develop a greater sense of cultural awareness and adaptability, both of which are invaluable skills in today’s globalised world. At the end of the programme, each student will receive a certificate of their academic performance, providing tangible recognition of their achievements.
