Welcome to Regent • Over 50 years’ experience of helping teenagers and children to use English • Dynamic immersion programmes: All day - All course – All English! • Courses throughout the year • Maximum class size of 12 • Highly motivating, enjoyable and effective language learning Regent was established over 50 years ago in 1964 by a passionate, experienced teacher who wanted to found a proper school, with proper teachers and proper courses. Today Regent offers innovative residential, homestay and home tuition courses for teenagers and children in which students are immersed in English from morning to night.

Through belonging to the team, group or class we help students build their confidence to join in, express themselves and present confidently.
English
Lessons build grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation often through feedback on listening, speaking, reading and writing tasks.

Students make international friends and connections, and develop their knowledge of academic topics such as politics, the environment or technology.

Teams
Each learner belongs to a team that represents a mix of age, nationality and gender. Students win Regent Lion points for their team for good behaviour and successful activities which creates competition and a positive course dynamic.

English Classes
Students are grouped according to their level in small (max 12) classes. Teachers set homework every day and students create a Personal Portfolio to record learning and achievements. They can study for the internationally recognised Cambridge exams.
My Passion
Students join a new specialist activity group that they are passionate about from Sports, Performing Arts, Music or Contemporary Arts and Literature. In an interest based English lesson, those not studying exams explore their passion further.
Active Session
All English Juniors and All English Study students have an active session filled with a variety of sports and activities.
Performance Project
In their teams students produce a week long performance project which culminates in making a student film, a drama, debate, presentation or school elections.
Homework
There is a homework session every day for exercises, revision and recycling. Students also work on an individual project to showcase their passion through English.

How to book a course To secure a place on a Regent course, please return the Registration Form together with payment of non-refundable deposit or book online at www.regent.org.uk. Payment of fees On receipt of the application and deposit a letter of confirmation is sent with a Statement of Fees which should be settled at least 4 weeks before the course starting date. In the case of registration less than 6 weeks before the course starting date, the full amount of the cost of the course must be sent with the Registration Form. PLEASE NOTE: students will not be allowed to start their course unless FULL PAYMENT has been received by the School. All bank charges must be paid by the student. Conditions for cancelling or changing a course by the Student • If the School receives the cancellation before the course starting date, the School will retain the deposit. • After the course has started, a student must give 10 days’ written notice to the Principal of changes to or cancellation of a course. A cancellation fee equivalent to 1 week’s course fees will be charged. Refunds cannot be made for non-attendance, absence due to illness or any other cause. • Any refund due when a course is changed or cancelled, or a holiday taken, will be paid to the person who paid for the student’s course at his/her home address at the end of the course. ‘End of the course’ here is defined as the last date of the course specified on the booking form (i.e. if a student books a 12 week course and decides to leave after 4 weeks s/he will not be refunded until 12 weeks after the start of the course). • If a student is denied a student visa or study permit and provides the School with a copy of the rejection letter on or before the first day of classes, the School will refund the course fees. Change or Cancellation of a course by the School Sometimes it is agreed between the School and a student that it would be beneficial for the student to be moved to another School course. When this happens only a course of at least equivalent cost will be offered by the School. The School reserves the right to cancel a course, or make changes to course arrangements, without liability, if forced to do so for reasons beyond its control. If this happened, the School would seek to offer alternative arrangements, dates or venues. If the School cancelled a course booked and paid for by a student in accordance with these terms other than for reasons beyond its control, and did not offer an alternative acceptable to the student, the School would pay compensation as follows: • Where the cancellation is before the start of the course, compensation equal to the deposit paid by the student or • Where the cancellation is after the start of the course, compensation equal to one week’s fees. Liability and Insurance Students should make sure that they organise their own travel insurance to cover medical costs and repatriation costs in the case of an illness or accident.
