course details

Our Vacation Courses for Teenagers are characterised by:

  • the high quality of our excursion/activity programme
  • the level of care and attention that students receive, both in and out of the classroom

Individual students and "mini" groups (max 12 per group) are accepted and the absence of large groups ensures a good nationality mix on the course. The study centre is the University of Chester, a short walk from the main school and the centre of Chester.
