**St Giles Juniors**

**Activity Leader (Non-Residential)**

St Giles has 69 years’ experience in providing high quality English courses. From the

moment our young learners arrive, St Giles staff work hard to ensure that they are

active, learning effectively and having the educational experience of a lifetime.

St Giles Juniors attracts students from more than 50 different countries and is a highly

regarded summer school provider. Our residential Juniors programmes welcome children

from age 8 to 17 and 5-17 on Family Courses. All staff are considered ambassadors of

the company and are challenged, both individually and collectively, to share the

organisation’s ethos and actively contribute towards achieving its objectives. Our goal is

to give students an educational, culturally-enriching, enjoyable and memorable summer

experience in a safe and supervised setting. We only employ people who are willing to

accept this responsibility and have the necessary wide-ranging skills, experience and

commitment to help us achieve our goal of being the very best junior course provider.

It will be necessary to always put the welfare of students first. The working day is

challenging and can be very tiring, but also filled with teamwork and a real sense of

achievement in delivering an exceptional programme, ensuring that our students have

a positive experience from the moment they arrive.
