Academies
In addition to language development, each student selects an academy to complement their learning during the two-week programme. A two-week programme will usually include 21 hours of English language tuition, 12 hours of Academies tuition, as well as 3 off-site excursions each week in addition to the sports and social programme.


International Relations
Designed for students with a B2 level (upper intermediate) or higher in English, this academy explores subjects like globalisation, sustainability, international finance, and politics.
Lectured by researchers and industry professionals, students engage in debates on pressing global issues like environmental protection, leadership, and justice.
Music & performance
This academy offers two pathways: music and performing arts. The music option is for students who already play an instrument or sing (minimum grade 4 or equivalent), focusing on solo and group work, culminating in a class performance.
The performing arts pathway develops acting or dancing skills through diverse mediums and genres, while fostering self-confidence and creative expression.


Pre-University Preparation
Aimed at older students (typically 15-17), this academy provides insights into university life, helping students explore educational options and prepare for the application process. Students will attend workshops with university lecturers, participate in campus tours, and experience university-style learning.
Students can participate in various sports, with dedicated professional coaches, including, but not limited to: swimming, fencing, tennis, football, and basketball.
These sessions provide an opportunity to try new activities, refine technical skills, develop a sense of tactics, and improve one’s ability to work as part of a team. Students will also compete in friendly matches, developing camaraderie and a sense of fair play.
