School:Bucksmore
Company:Nord Anglia Education- Bucksmore Education is full of history and tradition, but also of originality and challenge.

With 40 years of experience to perfect and improve the quality of our prestigious summer schools, we are proud of the summer programmes we offer.

It is our goal to support every student towards achieving their goals, in a safe and positive learning environment, whether this is building on their language skills, developing fundamental 21st century leadership skills and a global mindset or studying at a top UK boarding school or university.- The summer school was modelled on American summer camps, with 'Counsellors' who live with students, teach lessons and lead excursions and activities, providing a higher level of pastoral care, guidance, and friendship - giving students more than just 'teachers' and 'activity leaders' at a summer school.- Working in summer schools is a rewarding experience for both students and staff, and Bucksmore aims to make our courses ones that our students never forget.

The Bucksmore philosophy is for students to mix with their fellow students and staff wherever possible to make their time with us a rich and genuinely international cultural experience.
