An introduction to Northampton

Summer School UK

During the summer months of July and August, Bosworth Independent College is home to over 50 students joining their Summer School UK programme.

Each group is kept to a maximum of 15 and they are grouped according to their English abilities. Last year year we had 11 different nationalities; Brazilian, Chinese, German, Italian, Malaysian, Mongolian, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian and Vietnamese.

As we strive to support the local business community we will always look to source Summer School activities within the County. Students will visit many local tourist attractions; Northampton museum & art gallery, Abington Park museum, Stoke Bruerne (picture of students shown above), Althorp House and Rockingham Castle.

The town centre is also regularly visited during the programme offering a number of activities such as; shopping, Tenpin bowling, Laser Zone & Vue cinema, all ideal for the British weather! On sunnier days, students enjoy team building and orienteering at Brixworth Country Park and cycling around Pitsford Reservoir.

The course director Rachel Tatar explains,

"Our experienced teachers make a real difference to the students written and spoken English over the 6 week programme. By giving students a worthwhile experience at Summer School we encourage them to consider the UK as a future study option either at a School or University."



Furthermore, we believe we are helping to put Northampton firmly on the map by teaching the history and culture of our town.

An Art programme is also on offer to the International students 3 afternoons a week to improve their art portfolio and to learn new skills and techniques. This is also open to UK students between the ages of 13-18yrs and we hope this summer to encourage more UK students to join the group.

Book now to join us for one week or all six weeks from the 4th July - 14th August. Our Summer School page has more information, photos, Summer School video and also our application form.
