More about this camp

The Celtic Junior Summer Programme at Mayfield is operated by Celtic English Academy, a British Council accredited language school based in Cardiff, and hosted at Mayfield School — The Old Palace — in Mayfield, East Sussex. The programme is residential and accepts students aged 10 to 17. Programme and activities. Students take 15 hours of English lessons per week. The remainder of the timetable is filled with sports and cultural activities and three excursions each week, so days are structured from morning through to evening. Accommodation, meals and supervision. Students are accommodated in boarding accommodation at Mayfield School, with meals provided and 24/7 supervision in place throughout the stay. What is included. The published package covers tuition, residential accommodation, activities, three excursions per week, travel and medical insurance, weekly laundry and Wi-Fi, plus round-the-clock supervision. As with the provider's Monmouth centre, insurance and laundry being inside the headline price is a meaningful difference when comparing quotes between providers. Ages, dates and duration. The programme accepts students aged 10 to 17 — a slightly younger entry point than the provider's Monmouth centre — and is booked in blocks of one or two weeks. The published price is GBP 1,150 per week. The summer window runs from early July into early August; the arrival dates currently open are listed in the session block on this page and should be confirmed with the provider before travel is booked. Location and travel. Mayfield is a village in East Sussex, in south-east England, within reach of London and the Gatwick area, which makes it one of the more accessible rural locations for families flying in. Transfer arrangements are not published as part of the standard package and should be requested directly. Who the programme may suit. This centre may suit families who want the same accredited provider and package as Monmouth but in a south-east England location, or who have a child at the younger end of the range, since Mayfield accepts students from 10 rather than 11. The one-week minimum stay may also suit families combining the camp with other travel.
