The Cheltenham International Summer School Course Sunday 21 July – Sunday 4 August 2024
A two-week exciting summer course, with a full programme of fun activities, sports, excursions, and a taste of classroom study in British boarding school. The summer course is exclusively for partner schools of Cheltenham College. The programme will consist of up to 12 hours per week of academic study in lessons from Business, Science and Geography. There will be a special focus on entrepreneurship, leadership and teamwork, both in and outside the classroom! For those interested in applying to a British university in the future, we will visit Oxford and either Bath or Bristol Universities. There will also be a focus on business and entrepreneurship, where pupils will create a product idea and construct a business pitch to a panel of judges. The Summer School will include several outdoor excursions in the beautiful Cotswold hills and surrounding area. Teachers and activities leaders will mostly be Cheltenham College UK members of staff.
