School delivered courses abroad: an alternative style!

The Concept
They say that “a change is as good as a rest!” If you are interested in a language course abroad for your pupils, why not enlist our help to construct your own? We will provide the arrangements and facilities based upon your preferences using the format offered to our language school destinations. There are several advantages to offering such a course:

> You know your students and can tailor language content to suit.
> It is possible to cater for a greater ability and age range of students.
> Tuition costs are saved.
> The duration of your course is flexible
> Students still benefit from the afternoon activities and sports available.

The Destinations
Outlined below are the destinations for school delivered courses abroad together with a selection of activities and sports available at each. For each tour we will provide the travel and accommodation arrangements together with afternoon excursions/visits and suggestions for evening activities.

Winter or summer the French Alps provide a stimulating learning environment. You will stay at the Chateau de Faverges where you will be assured of a warm welcome. Facilities include classrooms, a library and a variety of activities that include volleyball, a non-heated swimming pool in summer and a good restaurant. There are numerous possibilities for activities and places to visit. Try mountain biking, horse riding, canoeing on Lac d’Annecy or take a walk.

The pretty historic town of Kitzbuhel provides the backdrop to our German courses. With its painted buildings, museums and old cobbled streets there is plenty to do outside the classroom. Stay at either the Noichl in Aurach or the Kaiser in the town itself, each with classroom facilities and easy access to the town by bus.
