WHEN the hard work and exams are over, it’s time to relax a little – but there is still plenty going on at Bosworth Independent College to ensure no-one needs to be bored during the long summer break.
The college is gearing up for its annual Summer School, which has been running for more than 20 years now. This year Bosworth is opening their doors to local students who wish to learn through combined academic study with a choice of afternoon activities: arts, tennis, film making or go-karting.
With an excellent reputation globally, Bosworth attracts students from all over the world, including Brazil, Mexico, China and Europe, providing an excellent opportunity to meet young people from a wide range of countries and cultures.
Rachel Southgate, Director of Summer School at Bosworth Independent College, said: “The Academic Programme offers the opportunity for students to enrich and broaden their skills, with comprehensive tuition in maths, sciences and Business Studies.
“The course allows students to expand their knowledge of the UK education syllabus. Small class sizes enable students to receive the extra help they need to achieve higher academic results and gain further experience in the laboratories.
“As part of the programme they are able to combine academic study with a choice of activity as well as organising trips to the likes of Oxford, London, the Harry Potter Studios and more.”
Students are encouraged to develop their skills in order to effectively study and work in international and inter-cultural settings in the future. They will be encouraged to develop their interpersonal communication skills and academic language, including spoken interaction as well as formal written and presentation within academic subjects.
The course forms a balanced mix of academic content and access to a range of exciting activities and trips as part of the broader Summer School experience. The college’s Academic Summer School runs from 21 July until 11 August and is open to 12 to 16-year-olds.
