At British Summer School, we place huge importance on the level of care we provide to all our students while they are away from home. We also understand that different age groups require and benefit from different levels of care and support.
Students are supervised in all lessons and sports and organised leisure activities. Different supervision rules apply according to students’ ages and different rules apply on different courses.
On campus, students are not supervised at all times, for example during breaks and free time. Off site, some students have free time away from British Summer School staff. See Student Handbook for more details.
All students receive a safety induction, relevant to their age, on the first or second day after arrival.
Most staff are residential and sleep in the same boarding houses as the students. Every student has a House Parent, who is responsible for their wellbeing not only in the house but at all times during their stay.
The Welfare Manager is overall responsible for students’ safety and wellbeing.
British Summer School offers a generous staff to student ratio to ensure the safety and happiness of all students. Our overall general ratio (staff/students) at each centre is at least 1:5.
