Job description

Join our Team!

We are an English language school with a reputation for quality. We were established in 1976, and since 1997 have also been running summer junior centres in various locations across the UK.

Introduction to our Junior Programmes

Our students come from all over the world – across our summer centres we welcome students from over 30 different countries each year. Students receive English language tuition together with a fun-filled and purposeful activities programme. The activities programme includes daytime and evening activities and full-day and half-day trips to local attractions and popular tourist destinations. In larger centres we operate a ‘zigzag’ timetable whereby half of the students have lessons in the morning and activities in the afternoon, and the others vice-versa, alternating on a weekly basis. Please note that the programmes and timetables are different for each centre.

Working Week

Activity Leaders typically work 6 days per week, with at least 1 full day off per week. Working hours include activities, trips, excursions, supervision duties (mealtimes, breaks, night duties etc). Non-residential staff will not be required to carry out night duties or breakfast supervision.
