    • three large residences with separate areas for boys and girls
    • excellent teaching rooms and facilities

    Learning to live together in an international community is, for many, the most valuable part of the experience:

    • boys and girls are accommodated separately and members of staff live in nearby rooms so there is always someone available during the day or night
    • the school supplies all bed linen and towels and there is a regular laundry service for personal items
    • the school encourages students to keep rooms tidy.

    All meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner, are taken together in the school dining room:

    GENERAL INFORMATION

    There are two types of accommodation you can choose:

    1. Homestay
    If you want to fully immerse yourself in English culture then you may enjoy homestay accommodation. You will live with a local family with breakfast and an evening meal included. On Sundays, lunch will also be included.

    Homestay hosts may be older people whose children have left home, they may be a full family with children, they may be a younger couple or single people: the school has over 200 hosts in the city, so the school will always try to place you in a suitable home.

    The homestay department spend a lot of time and care finding the host families and the homestay co-ordinator is in school every day in case you have any questions or difficulties. The school listens to your preferences (some people don’t want to live with pets, for example) and the school can also cater for special diets, e.g. vegetarian or halal.

    Most of the homestays are situated in the suburbs and are 20-40 minutes from the city centre by public transport [bus or train]. The school has no homestays in the city centre. All families have been visited by the school and had a security check.
