Group Tours
Milner School of English has over 10 years experience in
organizing group study tours for international students. We
will help you design a tailor-made programme to suit your students’
needs, whether your group would like full-time study or a
combination of study and fun activities.
Typically, a group will study for either 15 or 22 hours per week, and combine this with a selection of social events and outings. Milner School has Welcome Drinks, parties and after-school sports matches in which groups often choose to participate. Such activities are free or very cheap. We are also able to arrange excursions such as visiting the London Aquarium, weekend day trips to Stonehenge or Cambridge, a riverboat cruise on the Thames River, flying the famous London Eye, a tour of the Wimbledon Tennis Museum or shopping at Harrods Department Store. Depending on your budget and interests, we will arrange an appropriate schedule of study and activities.
Students can either be integrated into our international classes
with other students,
or receive their tuition as a closed
group. Our lessons are 60 minutes in length, not 45 minutes
as is often the case with other schools. Our 15 hour course
is equivalent to 20 lessons of 45 minutes. The maximum number
of students we have in any one class is 12.
We are able to accept students of 16 years and over. Most groups choose homestay accommodation. This is where we place students in a local British home, either on a shared or single basis, depending on your preference. Students receive a room, breakfast and dinner every day. All Milner’s homestay providers are visited and checked by us, and are located close to Milner School, usually within walking distance. Homestay offers an excellent opportunity for students to practise their English and learn more about the British way of life. It is usual for students to arrive on a Sunday and depart on a Saturday.

Group bookings are normally quoted per student, as an
all-inclusive package, which would usually include the
following: tuition (15 or 22 hours), accommodation
(homestay), transfer to and from the airport,
loan of course textbook, social
activities/excursions, free accommodation for one group leader,
graduation ceremony and end-of-course certificate. Of course
all these options are flexible depending on your needs. For
an example, please see our
Sample Group Tour Programme.
