Course content
Students follow a daily programme of 15 hours of
English language lessons in the morning, while
afternoons are spent learning outside of the
classroom through exciting activities with new
friends.
During the afternoon, students can choose from a
number of sports and arts activities, with something
for everyone. Sports can include tennis, football,
basketball and swimming. Arts activities can include
t-shirt painting, sketching, and performance arts.
Study trips are also a big part of the course, with one
full-day and one half-day trip to places of interest in
the UK included every week. Example trips include:
a full-day trip to London for a Shrek Adventure and
a walking tour and Brighton including the Brighton
i360, the famous Pier and the Lanes. Half-day trips
include Winchester Planetarium and Windsor Castle.
Students practise their English inside and outside of
the classroom, for the best learning experience.
In the evenings, Discover English students will have
an activity programme with a mix of sports, art and
crafts, and other activities such as quizzes and
film night.

Course content
Unlike our other Young Learner English programmes,
this course has English lessons in both the morning and
in the afternoon: 21 hours of English tuition per week
by a qualified English teacher. It is an intensive course
across English reading, writing, listening and speaking
skills.
It is not all hard work though – English Plus classes are
lively, interactive and fun. Students are encouraged to
speak English at all times, and benefit from using the
language with others their own age in different social
situations.
Students will have 15 hours of general English lessons
with the rest of the school then six additional hours
focused on improving their spoken English with an
exam at the end of their course.
Students also participate in sports, arts and crafts, and
other activities. Aimed at practising English through fun
and teamwork, the English Plus programme proves that
it is possible to work hard and still have fun!
There is one full-day and one half-day study trip
included every week. Examples include: Windsor Castle,
Winchester Planetarium, London with a Thames boat
cruise and royalty walking tour, and Brighton including
the Brighton i360, the famous Pier and the Lanes.
There are on-site evening activities organised by IH
staff every night, including fashions shows, discos, film
nights, and treasure hunts.
