More about this camp

The LiA London Summer Centre at UCL runs the Language in Action programme on the University College London Bloomsbury Campus at Gower Street. It accepts students aged 12 to 18. Programme and activities. Students take 30 hours of English tuition per two-week term. The distinguishing feature is the venue: UCL is one of the world's leading universities, and studying on its central-London campus carries an appeal for students thinking about higher education that the provider's residence-only centres do not. Accommodation. Students live and study on the UCL Bloomsbury Campus, with weekly room cleaning, bed linen and laundry. Having accommodation and teaching on the university campus removes any daily commute. Families should confirm room arrangements and what supervision applies outside teaching hours. Ages, dates and duration. The centre accepts students aged 12 to 18. The upper limit reaches past school-leaving age, so families should ask how age groups are separated. Four arrival dates are listed from late June. Location and travel. Gower Street is in Bloomsbury, central London, close to Euston, King's Cross and St Pancras. All London airports are reachable. Transfer arrangements are not published. Who the programme may suit. This centre may suit teenagers drawn to studying on a world-famous university campus in central London, with an intensive teaching load. Of LiA's London options, this is the one with the strongest university-name appeal. Given the intake runs to 18, families of a younger teenager should confirm grouping and supervision, and compare with the provider's residence-based Garden Halls, Parry Hall and UEL Docklands centres.
