UNDER 18s AT ENGLISH LANGUAGE HOUSE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS, PUPILS, AGENTS AND GROUP LEADERS

When dealing with students who are under18 ELH will adhere to the strict policies set out in the English UK guide which can be seen here ​ international students under 18: guidance and good practice 

HOW OLD ARE PUPILS WHO CAN ATTEND COURSES FOR UNDER 18s

Courses are suitable for pupils who are under 18 years old. ELH will group pupils according to age and language level. 
Sometimes it is possible for 16 and 17 year old pupils to join our adult classes. If you are interested in information about this please let us know.


ABOUT ENGLISH LANGUAGE HOUSE

English Language House (ELH) is an EFL/ESOL/EAL tuition and training centre.
  • We offer English Language courses for International students
  • We are a Teacher Training centre for the CELTA and Delta Cambridge English qualifications
  • We are an open centre for the Cambridge English examinations for international students (eg KET, Pet,FRCE, CAE, CPE, ESOL Skills for Life, and exams for young learners Starters, Movers, Shakers)
  • We are a listed SELT course provider for the Trinity Secure English Language Tests (SELT) which are approved for UKVI visa applications.
  • English Language House is accredited by the British Council, inspected by ISI, a member of English UK and ISA and a Tier 4 sponsor with the Home office. We are licensed to enrol international students under Tier 4 of the Points Based System.

​English Language House is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all students and especially under18s, who are considered children under English Law, and expects all staff to share this commitment. English Language House has a safeguarding policy to ensure the safety and care of under 18s. All ELH teachers who teach under 18s are DBS checked.

HOW LARGE ARE CLASSES AT ELH

Most classes have no more than 8 students. Our maximum class size is 12 students.

ACCOMMODATION FOR UNDER 18s

ELH can provide homestay accommodation for Under 18s but only if
  • Parents contact us directly to request this accommodation
  • Pupils are studying at Elh on a full time programme
  • Parents and pupils agree that Elh will only place pupils with families who are DBS checked.
  • Parents and pupils agree to follow the rules set out by Elh at all times.
  • Parents and pupils agree that if a pupil breaks these rules Elh will arrange a return flight for this pupil and his/her parents will pay for this flight. 

Parents should fill in, sign and return the ​Under 18s Registration form and the Under 18s Accommodation form no less than three months before their child/children’s arrival date so that we have enough time to find suitable homestay accommodation and confirm this before their child/children’s arrival. 

Agents/Group leaders bringing a group of students to Elh should ask parents to complete the ​
 ​Under 18s Registration form 
and, if necessary,  the Under 18s Accommodation form and that these forms are returned to Elh no less than five months before the group’s arrival date. This will allow ELH enough time to find suitable accommodation for the group.

WHY STUDENTS CHOOSE TO STUDY AT ELH
Studentswhostudywithusthinkthatweareaverygoodschoolwithfriendlystaffandgoodteachers.They especially like the small classes and the flexibility of our study programmes.We think English language house is a good place to study because:

weassessstudentsverycarefullyandonlyacceptstudentswhoaregenuineaboutlearning,soyou willnotbeinaclasswithstudentswhoarealldifferentlevelsorwithstudentswhodonotwanttobe there!
●
wecareaboutourstudents,wemeetandtalktothemabouttheirprogressatleastevery5weeks and we work hard to make sure that they achieve their full potential
●
ourteachersteachourstudents,theydon'tjustteacha“setbook"or"setsyllabus",soourstudents know that they will learn what you need and not just what's in the book or in the syllabus that week !!!
●
we have a very flexible study programme so our students can choose what classes are best for themand how much they want to spend
●
our British Council report noted our Teaching as a “strength” and our ISI report states that “the schoolexceeds expectations for the quality of education”.

Students who need a visa to study in England will need to read the ​
visa information page
 on our websiteand fill in and return the visa form, found in the Under 18s Registration form so that English Language Housecan consider their application as a visa student.

●
Some are also teacher trainers and teach on our CELTA and Delta courses.
●
Some are assessors for Cambridge English and some have worked as examiners for FCE, CAE, CPEand IELTS exams.
HOW WE HELP STUDENTS TO CHOOSE A SUITABLE PROGRAMME OF STUDY
Students take a placement test
We ask students to do a placement test. This will tell us the student's current level. After this we will talk tothe student about their individual needs and we will recommend the classes that we think are best. Thestudent can then decide how many classes they want to take, how long they want to study for, when theywant to start, what days and times they want to study and how much they want to spend.Students who want to prepare for an exam can do a hurdle test before they join an examination course. Thehurdle test will show if students are the correct level to start a preparation course for the exam they want totake.We also offer students to opportunity to sit a Cambridge English pre-test exam under exam conditions. Thisis free of charge and the exam is marked by Cambridge. Pre-test exams are available for FCE, CAE, CPE, IELTSetc. A pre-test exam is not the real exam and students do not get a certificate, but they are very useful ifstudents want to try the exam before they pay to sit the real thing!We want all our students to be happy and we work hard to achieve this. Our students' successes are oursuccesses and we are delighted when students achieve their English Language goals and move on to study atan English speaking University or into a better job.
