Eastbourne
Academics This carefully crafted programme, with 17½ hours of lessons per week, consists of English Skills, StoryTime and Explorations, where students learn English through stimulating subjects such as Science, Technology, Geography and History. Lessons improve students’ general language competencies (including grammar and vocabulary) while placing particular emphasis on communication, fluency and building confidence in the speaker. LEVELS & CLASSES All levels are welcome, starting from A0 (Complete Beginner) up to C2 (Proficiency). To ensure the best possible outcome in lessons, our academic team places students in classes based on their level, age and nationality. ENGLISH SKILLS These lessons are designed to improve students’ general language skills, extend their vocabulary and better their understanding of grammar, to improve accuracy when producing spoken and written English.
For further information on Academics at Bede’s Summer School, please see page 10 of the Introduction.
STORYTIME Working on several different children’s stories per week, StoryTime lessons stimulate students’ natural curiosity, develop their listening and speaking skills and extend their everyday vocabulary. EXPLORATIONS These lessons use CLIL methodology to develop students’ English skills through a range of stimulating subjects such as Science, Technology, Geography and History. BEDE’S HOLIDAY CLUB Bede’s Holiday Club is a day activity camp for local British children to spend their summer at Bede’s Eastbourne making friends with our Little Explorers! Summer School students have the opportunity to interact during breaks, afternoon activities and mealtimes with children from the local community. This will help build their confidence and provide excellent practice for their English skills in real life scenarios.
