English Summer Camp for Teens at University of East London

The academic programme focuses on communicative skills and is delivered by trained, friendly teachers. Students receive 20 lessons (45 minutes each) per week in well-equipped classrooms. Upon arrival, a placement test ensures students are grouped into classes of approximately 17, according to their level, age, and nationality mix. The curriculum emphasises practical English use, with progress confirmed by teachers in the first days and an end-of-course certificate awarded upon completion.

The base package includes English lessons, full-board accommodation in single en-suite rooms at the UEL campus, a weekly schedule of on-site activities, and a programme of included half and full-day excursions (e.g., London walking tours, museums, trips to Cambridge/Brighton). Group airport transfers are also included in the package. Personal transfers can be arranged through Embassy Summer for an additional fee. Optional excursions (e.g., Thorpe Park, London Eye, musicals), guard.me insurance if needed and laundry services are available at extra cost. A mandatory refundable damage deposit (£30/£40) is required upon arrival.

Students stay in single, en-suite rooms within the secure, modern university campus residence (Longbridge House). Each room is equipped with a desk, chair, wardrobe, and bed linens. The campus features 24-hour security, CCTV, free Wi-Fi, communal lounges, laundry facilities, and a night supervisor. The accommodation is cleaned weekly, and room keys are issued to students, with master key access reserved for staff in case of emergencies.

Full-board accommodation is provided, with all meals served in the university dining hall, The Edge. The catering offers a nutritional balance with daily options, including hot and cold meals and vegetarian choices. Packed lunches are provided on excursion days. Dietary requirements can be catered for if notified at least two weeks in advance.

The programme balances educational excursions with vibrant on-site social events. Included trips explore London's iconic landmarks (Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, museums) and nearby cities like Cambridge and Brighton. On-campus, students enjoy sports (football, basketball), creative challenges (Egg Drop, Trashion Show), and evening entertainment (discos, karaoke, film nights). This mix encourages English practice, cultural immersion, and forming international friendships in a fun, engaging setting.

The centre utilises the full facilities of the University of East London Docklands Campus. This includes modern lecture theatres and classrooms for lessons, the state-of-the-art Sports Dock complex with an indoor sports hall and Astro pitch, an outdoor basketball court, green areas, various cafes (Starbucks, Costa), a shop, and multiple communal social spaces. The campus is equipped with free Wi-Fi and is directly opposite the Cyprus DLR station for easy access to London's transport network.
