More about this camp

The WLES Junior Programme is a London English course for teenagers aged 12 to 17, run by a family-run, British Council accredited school in Ealing. It focuses on affordable, accessible language learning, with topic-based morning lessons that use science, technology, sports, music and art projects rather than dry grammar to keep students engaged. The school sits in a convenient part of west London, with central London around 11 minutes away and Walpole Park directly behind the building — giving students a green space on the doorstep and quick access to the wider city. The programme runs across all four seasons, so families are not limited to the peak summer weeks. By default this is a day course. WLES arranges homestay accommodation through its own vetted host-family network, which the school actively recruits and inspects, giving students an immersive experience of everyday life in a London family home rather than a residential campus. The programme suits families looking for a practical, budget-conscious way for a teenager to study English in London, with flexible dates and a genuine local setting. As accommodation is homestay-based, it is well suited to students comfortable with independent travel to and from lessons. Availability, dates and prices may change quickly. Please always confirm details directly with the camp provider before making travel arrangements.
