Family Programme
An opportunity to travel and study with your family
This programme is for parent/s and child/ren between 12 and 15. Parents take an Intensive English course for over 25s (or a Professional Development Course) at the Lake School, between 9.15am and 4pm.
Children study on a separate junior course, between 9am and 5.30pm (students may return for the evening social activities). This course is at St Hugh's College and provided by MM Oxford. Older children, aged 16 and over, can study at Lake School on an Intensive English course.
Our partner, at St Hugh's College (MM Oxford), is a well-established language course provider for juniors: teachers are experienced and qualified at teaching English as a foreign language.
We can help you to arrange self-catering accommodation for your family in Oxford. Homestay may also be possible.
