5. «OUR PARTNERS ARE HIGHEST EXPERTS IN UK EDUCATION»
ACCREDITED BY:

6. BRITISH EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM

7. «BRITISH EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM»
Most British children are educated in the state system from the age of four. The school
leaving age is currently being raised from 17 to 18, but the final two years can be spent in
college or work-related training.
Many pupils transfer to sixth form or further education college at 16 after taking GCSE or
equivalent exams. Both state and private further education colleges are open to fee-paying
overseas students. Some colleges will specialize in academic courses such as A Level or the
International Baccalaureate (IB). Others run a full range of vocational courses.
Most British universities are public institutions, largely funded by the Government. They are
increasingly popular with fee-paying overseas students as well as those from Britain. This is
the only part of the state education sector for which UK students have to pay.
We also have a world-class high quality private education sector which is very popular with
international students. This includes independent (public) schools, independent colleges,
and private language schools. Language schools should be accredited under the
Accreditation UK Scheme or on the Register of Sponsors. Private colleges should be
accredited by the British Accreditation Council (BAC).
State-funded colleges and universities are officially inspected and regulated to ensure that
they meet very high quality standards.

8. «UK is the home of the English language, and is renowned for the high
quality of its education system.»
There are many reasons why students and their families choose to study in Britain:
Around 600,000 people
come to UK every year
to study English: that's
an estimated 43 per
cent of all the students
who travel abroad to
learn or improve their
English.
•
•
•
•
It has the best choice of English language courses anywhere in the world
and British qualifications are internationally recognized.
The UK is an exciting place to live, with a rich mix of history, culture and
global influences. Most students love it here. They tell us how friendly
British people are, and enjoy the diverse backgrounds and cultures of the
people they meet.
Students who come here to study English are far more likely to get a
place at a UK university and continue their education here.
The UK is a fantastic base for traveling and exploration. Britain is a
comparatively small country with good travel links: there is lots to see and
do here. Excellent transport links also make the UK a perfect base to
explore Europe.

your reading speed and
memory recall by up to 40%
and your creative thinking

10. «WHAT CAN WE OFFER »
Every student has different needs, and BAAS’s partners - which range from universities to
private colleges - can cater for all of them. Some of them specialise in short summer courses
for teenagers, while other centres may concentrate on business English and the needs of
different professionals.
Our offers range from family-run operations where students live and work as a group,
through the well-known private language centre chains, to departments in further education
colleges and universities.
Private language schools usually offer a range of different English language courses. They
may specialise, for instance in business English or English Plus leisure courses. They can
usually accommodate all skills levels and offer part time or full time courses, with flexibility
about length and start dates.
Independent schools and tutorial colleges offer a range of subjects and activities all taught in
English. Some offer summer programmes.
Further Education Colleges usually offer courses for students at all levels as well as careerbased training and academic courses in classes where other students will speak English as a
first language.
Higher education institutions and universities are generally geared to students whose
language skills are intermediate or better. Many specialise in teaching English for academic
purposes or foundation courses.

11. INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS

12. For over 100 years, students have been coming to the UK to enjoy the benefits of a
student’s independence, confidence and faith in himself or herself is built up. You’ll
see them everywhere. Poised, confident, socially assured, they have an aura of
brightness, smartness and success. And whatever job they are doing, you know they
are giving it everything, achieving in it and leading a successful life. Once you know
what you are looking for, it is not difficult to spot people who have been educated
at a UK independent school. There is a quality about them, a cool, individual,
sometimes quirky, self-assurance that perhaps more than anything makes them a
pleasure to meet and to get to know.

13. Independent or Public Schools are known as Private sector in
British education. They are expensive and have very high
academic standards which allows your child to go to top
universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, LSE. Children live at
school during term time, only returning home at half term and
during the main holidays (Christmas, Easter and Summer). As
children live at school, there is a wide range of extra-curricular
clubs and activities, such as astronomy, chess,
computers, debating, public speaking, photography. Music and
drama play a large part of school life outside the classroom children are encouraged to learn to play a musical instrument or
join a choir. Sport is also very much to the fore and nowadays the
traditional games such as football, rugby, cricket, tennis, netball
and hockey are complemented by activities such as aerobics,
canoeing, horse-riding, rock-climbing, squash and swimming.
!
All schools chosen by BAAS have strong EFL (English as a
Foreign Language) departments to assist children from
overseas with extra English for the first term or as required.
If you were to ask current parents why
they chose Independent school for
their son or daughter, they would tell
you that the children here are cheerful,
balanced, at ease with themselves and
each other – yet excited and enthused
by the challenges before them. They
might add that co-educational college
succeeds in combining academic
excellence with a wealth of extracurricular opportunities, all
underpinned by a deep commitment to
the individual needs and enthusiasms
of each child.
As Head Master, I believe passionately
in the importance of the individual.
Every child at Independent school is
valued for his or her own sake,
encouraged to develop his or her
talents to the full in a community
where there are no stereotypes and
where every achievement, however
small, is noticed.
Richard Cairns, Head Master of Brighton College

15. SCHOOL FEES
When choosing a UK boarding school for your child, you will need to take
into account the fees a school charges. The cost of a UK boarding
education may initially appear high, but when you take into account the
quality of the teaching, the small classes (the average teacher-to-pupil ratio
in 2008/09 was 1:9.5), the high level of care and supervision, the good
accommodation and food, the excellent academic and sports facilities, and
the numerous extracurricular activities, it represents a very cost-effective
package.
Teaching at all levels at
Independent school is
characterised by passion.
Pupils are inspired by
gifted and enthusiastic
teachers to achieve more
than they ever thought
possible.
Fees vary widely from school to school. The 2009 Independent Schools Council Annual Census revealed that the average
boarding fee per term for pupils at senior schools was £7,748, with day fees at around £3,428. Preparatory school fees are a
little less, at an average of £4,511 per term for boarders, and £3,236 per term for day pupils. Fees are payable in advance and
overseas account holders may be required to give a substantial deposit, generally one term’s fees.
Fees are charged per term – invoices are sent out before the beginning of term, and the fees should be paid in full by the first
day of term. Many schools offer a variety of payment methods, ranging from lump-sum payments to monthly direct debit. All
schools require at least one term’s notice of withdrawal of a child, otherwise another term’s fees will be payable.
Fees will usually include tuition and most recreational activities, accommodation and food. Fees may also include basic
laundry and textbooks, but uniforms will not usually be included. ‘Extras’ will be put on the bill for the next term, so be sure to
find out what these may be before you incur additional expenses. Likely extras could be private music lessons, horse riding,
dry cleaning and outings, such as theatre trips. In recent years, annual fee increases have been in the region of 5–6%,
although they do vary from school to school.

16. “I learnt not just the facts, but also the ability
to analyse and, confidently justify and explain
my answers. The Medics Programme has
been really helpful, I was able to get support
with writing my personal statement, setting
up work experience with a local Veterinary
Practice and help with my interview
technique. I’ve had to work really hard this
year but now I have my place I can relax a bit!
Without this Programme I doubt I would
have achieved my place at Cambridge”
Reimi Konda, Japanese A*A*A*A*

University of Cambridge, Veterinary Medicine

17. “I was always keen to study at a traditional
boarding school and private college offered
everything I was looking for but with the
attraction of not being isolated in the middle
of the countryside. I enjoy the flexibility
of being able to take trips at the weekend or
going out with my friends. Canterbury is very
historic and with the countryside so close
there is always lots of activities to do.”

STATE SCHOOL PLACEMENT (family only)
At our schools we recognise that students are primarily seeking to use their language skills in
communicative situations. Therefore the lessons encourage learners to communicate their ideas
through speaking and listening. Learning a language requires more than simply studying isolated
words and grammatical features. Throughout our courses all language is presented in context and
students are encouraged to be aware of its use, meaning and form before putting it into practice. We
provide materials that are specifically aimed at young learners on short courses and students are
encouraged to keep diaries and vocabulary books. We also deliver project based lessons linked to
interests.
Our course syllabus is in line with the CEF (Common European Framework). Upon completion, each
student is graded and awarded a course certificate.
We hope then that each student returns to their country of origin proud of their achievements with
us, with an improved level of English, some new friends from around the world, and some great
memories!

FOUNDATION, A-LEVEL, IB COURSES (residence)
“Key to the College’s environment is inspirational teaching.”
The College has a teaching body that must rank among the best in England. They
care about the subjects they teach; they convey that enthusiasm to the children;
and, together, they create a climate of learning that inspires the young people
here to realise their dreams and to achieve more than anyone ever thought
possible. That achievement is particularly noticeable in these courses, where
excellent results are achieved alongside a stimulating and extensive range of cocurricular opportunities.
The courses at the College provides a supportive environment in which pupils
can develop their academic, creative and sporting interests. We place great
emphasis on developing the individual interests of our students. We encourage
them to be independent, whilst ensuring that they are supported as they make
the decisions that will affect the future path of their lives. We want our pupils to
be at ease with themselves and the society of which they are part: tolerant,
caring and kind, but ambitious for themselves.
Pre-university pupils apply to leading universities across the UK and, increasingly,
the USA and Europe, with the vast majority proceeding to their first choice
institution. The most popular destinations are Oxford, Cambridge, UCL, LSE,
Imperial and Manchester. Pupils are well supported through the university
application process by the Head of school or their tutor.

71. GUARDIANSHIP

72. THE SAFETY OF EACH AND EVERY CHILD IS PARAMOUNT
Our guardianship service is designed to provide for every need that a child in a British
school would require and which would normally be provided by their natural parents.
We maintain contact with parents/agents by e-mail, letter or telephone, reporting
regularly on each student’s progress and immediately should any particular event or
incident merit attention.
From Head Office, our staff co-ordinate the activities of a highly trained team of Local Coordinators throughout the UK who act as local guardians, living close to the child’s school
and providing constant care and support. They maintain regular, individual contact with
all of our students by telephone, e-mail and personal visits, passing a constant flow of
information back to us for transmission to parents. This also means that if you have
children at different schools within the United Kingdom, we can provide guardianship
cover for all of them, meaning you only have to deal with one organisation.
We hope to allay the understandable anxiety of parents whose children are many miles
away from home and to provide the pupil with the friendship and security to enable them
to fulfil their place at the school with the same confidence as their peers whose parents
are close at hand. For private school students we arrange family accommodation during
half term holidays and exeat weekends and can also provide host families for day
children.

73. WHAT WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR?
Airport Reception
Transport Arrangement charged to the Expenses Lodgement
Host Family Accommodation Placement during exeat, half term, and longer holidays
Regular Inspection of host families to ensure the highest standards
Transport arrangement to / from the host family
Close Contact with the child, host family and school
Monitoring the child’s well-being and academic progress
Attendance at School Functions on parent’s behalf
Advice and Assistance with educational studies at higher levels
Regular Written Reports to head office
Immediate Contact in the event of any significant incident
Control of Payments made from the Expenses Lodgement
Necessary Travel Arrangements charged to the Expenses Lodgement
Validation Documents of academic achievement if required
Regular Reports to parents/agent
24-hour Emergency Service
All our staff at Head Office,
our Local Co-ordinators,
Host Families and
Transport Drivers are
verified as safe persons to
be with children by the UK
Government’s CRB/ISA.
Whilst conforming with the
guidelines of the Children
Act 1989, we also meet
the professional standards
of The Association for the
Education and
Guardianship of
International Students
(AEGIS). We are also proud
to have become a Partner
of Quality English (QE) and
