Description: The Hamilton School of English - Edinburgh is an international summer school for 12-18 year olds. Now in our 28th year, we offer a full programme of English tuition and activities to teenagers at our beautiful summer centre based at Edinburgh Napier University’s Craiglockhart Campus (20 minutes from the city centre by bus). As owner and director of the school, Mrs Darling maintains a good mix of nationalities at this excellent small school (max 75, average 60 pupils per course) and she personally interviews and selects host families and teachers. The Hamilton School of English offers 18 hours of tuition per week in small classes (max 15 per teacher). Afternoon activities include informal English language study during Project Sessions (including music, drama, magazine work, dance, etc), excursions, sports, crafts, and on one afternoon, optional exam preparation (PET and KET). We also arrange 4 evening activities per week. Pupils are met on arrival at Edinburgh airport or train station by their host families. Host families also show pupils how to get to school on the first morning. Please note that we offer only host family accommodation, not residential. Summer courses run for 2 and 3 weeks. Fees include a non-refundable enrolment fee (£200), transfers to and from Edinburgh airport or train station, tuition, shared homestay (host family) accommodation, all meals (breakfast and dinner with family, hot lunches provided by school), excursions (including admission charges), and all scheduled activities. On arrival, students must buy a bus pass, which costs £20 per week, but apart from that students need only pocket money (we recommend £15-£25 per week). We can also arrange courses for closed groups outwith July and August for any age group (teens, seniors, golf + English, gardens + English and other special interest groups, etc). More information available on request.
