UK Summer Courses & Study Tours 2025
During Summer holiday, many parents would look for summer courses, study tours and overseas learning activities for their children, to make good use of the holiday break. Spending a few weeks in a foreign country is a great way to learn about its culture, people and education environment and an effective way to improve your English! So we’ve handpick nine courses which we think are fantastic options for students of different ages and learning expectations. Under each of them we have indicated course components of lessons and activities, so that parents can easily locate the one with the right balance of class and play!
Key Features:
- All-in-One English Learning, Activities & Excursions Experience: Most of these summer courses and study tours focus on English learning with the most basic courses consisting of 15 hours of English lessons per week. They also come with a series of sports, extracurricular activities and excursions, providing the perfect chance for students to practice their English in real-life situations!
- Academic & Career Pathways: Apart from English lessons, many courses also provide different academic and career pathways to encourage students to study English through their interested subjects. Students can also understand more about potential university subject choices and career paths through these academic and career themes. In 2025, these include medicine, computer science, STEM, art & design, architecture, business, etc.
- Experience Life in UK Boarding Schools: Many of these courses are held in traditional boarding schools, where students can enjoy an action-packed holiday in a safe environment. The choice of campus affects availability of extracurricular activities, excursion destinations and special activities. Please refer to the following introductions as an initial guide and feel free to ask for details (fees, sample timetables, excursion arrangements, etc) from our education consultants.
- Explore New Hobbies: Sports and extracurricular activities are key features of a British education. In these summer courses and study tours, students will have a taste of just that! There will be plenty of opportunities to try out new things and develop some new hobbies, with options from equestrian, fencing, dance, art & design and many more.
- Excursions: Every summer course and study tour includes one to two days of excursions per week. Led by the tour staffs, students will visit UK’s popular tourist attractions, for example, London, Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, etc.
