For students aged 11 to 17 years, our English PLUS Holiday courses have been running for many years.  Some students return year after year to meet old friends. Others, when they are old enough, may come back to help as Sports Assistants.  English teachers too, return to Alexanders each summer to enjoy again our unique residential centre on the Bawdsey Manor Estate.  Course are always over-subscribed so book early to avoid disappointment. 

English PLUS courses: Art, Multi Activities, Sailing, Tennis, Golf, Horseriding, Football, Music and Drama or Intensive English.

Accommodation
Students are all resident on campus in separate boarding houses for boys and girls, each supervised by resident staff.  Students share rooms with one, two or three children of different nationalities if possible. Some children prefer to share with friends from the same country and we try to make special arrangements if we know in advance.

English Language tuition
The course includes 15 hours General English language each week.  Students learn in small groups of no more than 15 people, with others of similar ability.  All levels of English language are accepted.  There is a grading test on arrival.  At the end of the course, each student receives a Certificate of Attendance and a short report to record individual achievement.

The PLUS element
Normally 9 hours (including travelling time off-site) per week with a choice of: Multi-Activities, Creative Arts, Golf, Horseriding, Sailing, Football, Music and Drama or Tennis or additional Intensive English classes (6 hours).  

Sports and Activities may be subject to change from time to time if the weather is adverse or if the number of participants falls below the minimum required.  Occasionally new activities are offered when facilities become available.

Social Programme 
Social activities are arranged each evening and at weekends: beach parties, kite flying, discos and treasure hunts are popular on campus while local excursions to the cinema or bowling are always popular. 

Excursions
There is a full-day educational excursion each Wednesday to a place of interest in East Anglia, and at weekends one full day excursion, usually to London.

Airport transfers
Students who travel via Heathrow or Stansted Airports on flights arriving on a Sunday and departing on a Saturday between 1000 and 1800 hrs will be charged an additional 50.00 GBP for a return transfer. 

For students who arrive or depart outside these hours, or travel via other arrival points, we can arrange individual transfers for which there will be a charge. Details on request.
