Accommodation and Location

Throughout their stay, students live with carefully selected local families, the majority of whom have been known to and used by the Academy for many years. Many have children of their own, and act as host families for a variety of organisations, so are sensitive to the concerns and needs of their guests. All families live in or near Ealing. Usually students are accommodated in groups of two / three or four per household and all are relatively close to each other so that no-one is isolated. Students are usually required to be back home by midnight and any other rules are agreed upon before arrival with parents, students, teachers and families. All students are expected to sign up and abide by a Code of Conduct agreed between the Academy and the host family.

School Project Fees

A School Project is based on a 5-day visit which usually includes an introductory session; three special interest visits; a group visit and student presentation & evaluation time. Students often arrange their own visits in any spare time.

Pricing upon application

It is always possible to arrange a shorter or longer visit with a different style of programme and fees would be adjusted accordingly. Teachers do not pay a project fee. The Academy can arrange accommodation in a hotel or in a family as desired, and teachers will be charged for this only. All participants must take out their own personal insurance for loss and accident.

We require that the final number of students participating in the School Project is received
one month before the start. If there is a cancellation before that date, a refund for that student will be made, less 15% to cover administrative costs. If cancellation occurs less than one month before the start of the School Project, the fee for the accommodation and the School Project remain payable but a substitute person will be accepted without notice.
