The school's mission is to treat students as individuals, help them find their own voice in English, and create conditions for full language immersion both inside and outside the classroom. It emphasises values of quality, continuous improvement, care, and international experience, while maintaining family ownership and long term relationships with its learners. The teaching approach at St Giles International is learner centred: lessons are built around the aims and needs of each student, and programmes are adjusted according to the group profile and course objectives.

More about this camp

This is a family course held in Brighton, on the East Sussex coast — a programme where the whole family attends and studies together, not a camp where a child is sent on their own. This distinction matters: parents and children both take part, so it suits families who want a shared trip rather than independent childcare. Programme and activities. The course lets families learn new skills, make international friends and explore a new city together. A Platinum Executive English strand and a Family English Course are listed, covering children's ages from 5 to 15 alongside their parents. Brighton itself — its seafront, lanes and youthful character — provides the setting. Accommodation and meals. Accommodation is in homestay twin rooms, with breakfast provided each day, or in hotels, with a hotel upgrade available on request. Because families travel and stay together, the usual concerns about a child's supervision do not apply in the same way — the parent is present throughout. Ages, dates and duration. The children's age range runs from 5 to 15, studying alongside adults. One session is currently listed, beginning in mid-June; families should confirm whether other dates are available. Location and travel. Brighton is on the south coast, around an hour from London by train and close to Gatwick. Transfer arrangements are not published. Who the programme may suit. This course may suit families who want to learn English together and combine it with a seaside holiday, particularly those with a young child who would not attend a camp alone. It is not a send-your-child-away programme — the whole point is that the family stays together. Families wanting a residential children's camp should look elsewhere in the catalogue; families wanting the same shared format in a different city can compare the provider's Cambridge, London Central and Highgate family courses.
