Pre-Sessional English for Incoming A-Level students

During the course, you will develop both a physical and online academic portfolio which you will carry with you on to your chosen academic programme. This will include samples of oral and written work, extended assignments, feedback on weekly tasks and performance as well as grades.

The course is a great opportunity to explore your subject choices in more detail and to expand your knowledge before the term begins. It also places a strong focus on helping you to develop key language and academic skills to best prepare you for success on your chosen academic programme.

Welfare

Every Bucksmore location has a residential management team, and a minimum staff-student ratio of 1:7. There is always a trained first aider on-site, and students are supervised 24 hours a day.

Airport Transfers

Bucksmore offers a complimentary airport transfer service on transfer days for flights arriving/departing between 10:00 and 20:00. We can also provide an Unaccompanied Minor service for pick-up and drop-off. Students are looked after from when they land to when their flight departs.

Staff

Each location has a Centre Manager, Activity Manager and Director of Studies available for all students to approach with any problems. Bucksmore Counsellors are more than just teachers; they provide a high level of care and guidance for all students. All staff are background checked.

Pastoral Care

High staff to student ratios ensure all students are looked after. Bucksmore summer schools strive to create a warm and welcoming “family atmosphere” where all students and Counsellors know each other well.
