Dynamic Summer English Courses for Juniors

Regent - long experience of English summer schools 

Regent has over 50 years' experience in providing high quality English language summer courses for children and teenagers aged 7-17. From the moment our juniors arrive, Regent staff work hard to ensure that they are active, learning effectively and having the educational experience of a lifetime. We are committed to creating a community environment throughout our camp and endeavour to carry this through all aspects of the programme. 

Residential and Homestay courses for children and teenagers

We run our residential language courses for juniors in a famous boarding school, Stowe School near Buckingham, for students aged 7-12 and 13-17.  We have exclusive use of the school and grounds for English summer school courses. The location is very impressive and offer a stimulating environment for learning and personal development.  We offer our homestay courses teenagers in our school near the sandy beach in Bournemouth. Bournemouth is a lovely location in which to learn English on a summer course.

We use highly motivated, friendly and supportive staff on our summer language programmes, ensuring that our international students learn English in a memorable, dynamic and structured environment. We offer a choice of lessons suitable to the ages of the students.  For the younger students we have dedicated course leaders and teachers, skilled at engaging youngsters and helping them interact in English. The Juniors are escorted by staff throughout their course, and have lively activities especially designed for younger learners. We work hard to provide a caring and lively environment in which the children can grow in confidence interacting with each other in English. 

For students aged 13+ looking for a globally recognised examination they can choose our exam prep course for the Cambridge: B2 First (FCE) or Cambridge: C1 Advanced (CAE) exams, and take the exam on site at the end of the course. 

As well as their lessons all students on these courses have an activity session filled with a variety of sports or other activities. Sports include football, music, basketball, and use of the swimming pool, sports hall and tennis courts on the Stowe campus. 

Learning with Regent 

Regent was established in 1964 by a passionate, experienced teacher who ran his first summer school in 1965.  Our core values shine through our programmes:

Positive: We believe that everyone can learn to use English proficiently; we push each student to become an effective communicator. We create a positive, enjoyable environment praising effort and attitude and encouraging every individual to achieve their best.

Inclusive:  Every student who takes a group course is in several different classes or teams. We arrange whole course activities so that students quickly feel part of the group, and can connect meaningfully with staff and other students.

Results focused: Our courses are educationally-led and designed to ensure robust progress. A coaching session, daily homework sessions and weekly tests help students to set goals and visualise progress. They create a learning portfolio throughout their stay to record results and achievements. At the end of the course students receive a Certificate and progress report.

Assistance: A 24 hour emergency contact line is in place throughout the duration of all courses.
