INTERNATIONAL

Student Ambassadors Our International Student Ambassadors give our Academy students the opportunity to interact with British students for an even more authentic and valuable experience. This new initiative proved a great success at Warminster during the summer of 2018 and we are pleased to introduce this concept in both our academies for 2019. Our International Student Ambassadors (ISA’s) are local students between the ages of 13-17, who welcome our academy students and give them an insight into life growing up in the UK.

The ISAs will be integrated into our programmes and spend lessons, activities and free time together with our Academy students, to help them settle into their new environment and make English friends that are their own age.

THE ISA’S ARE THERE TO: · Provide an opportunity to practise English language skills · Socialise during free time and activities · Provide students with an insight into life in a British boarding school · Help overcome and understand cultural differences · Have fun!

Please contact your Embassy Academy Enrolment Manager for more information. * Students may be grouped together with others that are arriving at a similar time unless specifically requested they travel individually.
