Описание

Our school is a 15-minute walk to the beach and around 25 minutes to the town centre of Bournemouth. We have two spaces on one site, a 4-classroom building with modern rooms and equipment, mainly used for our year-round school, and a large historic building with another 8 large classrooms and break-out rooms for our off-season and summer groups. Established in 2003, we are accredited by the British Council and a member of English UK. It is an open city campus with easy access to the beach & city centre. On top of this, we have some facilities for indoor activities, e.g. dance workshops, arts & crafts or movie sessions. Our school is accessible for disabled students (there is access to wheelchairs). 

One of England's most famous student towns and the sunniest resort. The school is located within walking distance of the town centre.

The two IP schools are a 7-minute walk from each other and a 15-minute walk from Bournemouth Pier and the town centre near Landsdowne. It is an open, urban campus with accessible beach and town centre access. The school also has an indoor sports hall for dance lessons, film screenings and creative workshops. 

Homestay Accommodation 

• Students stay in twin rooms (triple rooms on request only!). Single rooms are available for group leaders only. 
• Students stay in a room together with students of the same sex and if possible of the same age 
• All of our hosts are DBS checked and respect our strict homestay guidelines and are carefully chosen by our local Accommodation Manager 
• Students receive breakfast, a packed lunch and dinner. Vegetarian food is available. All other special diets or food allergies are on request only. Halal and kosher food is not available.

• Hosts assist students with travel between home and the IP centre on the first day of school 

Hosts can be located in Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch and are usually close to the school but in some cases, it may take students up to max. 45 minutes by public transport. 

Suppose students need to take public transport to get to the school centre. In that case, they are not necessarily able to stay until the evening programme finishes because some local bus services run less frequently in the evenings (in case an evening activity has been booked). 

To learn more about English traditions and culture, we offer different “Taste of English Traditions” workshops which can be booked as a supplement.

Literature and Poetry afternoon: For the keen and outstanding artistic students with a flair for British literature, a taster lesson on the work of William Shakespeare, Lord Byron, Agatha Christie and many more!

Workshop from 1:45 pm until 3:15 pm

Why Bournemouth?

There are so many reasons to travel to Bournemouth! We picked the best ones for you: 

• Bournemouth is a very young town: before 1810, the area was a deserted heathland, the only visitors of which were fishermen and smugglers. 
• It is a very tourist place, counting 6.88m visitors per year for 187 503 inhabitants 
• Bournemouth beaches reach over 7 miles, from adjacent Christchurch to Sandbanks, Poole. 
• The coastline just west of Bournemouth, the Jurassic Coast, is England’s first and only natural World Heritage Site and it’s the only place where you can explore 185 million years of our history. 
• Bournemouth was the first place in the UK to have purpose-built beach huts, built in 1909 and marked with a blue plaque near the east of Bournemouth Pier 
• Literary Lover? You’ll adore this fact: Bournemouth has been home to some pivotal writers of our time, such as JRR Tolkien, Enid Blyton and Mary Shelley. Mary Shelley herself is buried in Bournemouth with her husband’s heart. 
• After Liverpool and London, Bournemouth is the UK town where The Beetles played the most concerts – there must have been something they liked down here, like the lovely town perhaps? 
• Bournemouth Beach has been named the best beach in the British Isles in an annual roundup of the world's best beaches. According to TripAdvisor, the seven-mile English beach was ranked sixth best in Europe and 20th in the world for its golden sand and views of the Isle of Wight. 

SPECIAL: London Stopover For closed groups we offer a Stopover in London at arrival or departure for one or two nights. Accommodation is provided in a youth hostel, full board (half board upon request only), tube tickets and transfer from or to the Airport are included as well.
