UWS Paisley校区的夏季英语课程

General English for students aged 11 to 18, taught on the UWS Paisley campus by St Andrew's College Language Schools. Classes hold up to eighteen students and are grouped by level after an online grammar and listening test taken before arrival and a speaking and writing test on the first days at the centre. The school teaches fifteen hours a week over a fourteen-night stay and runs lessons on a zig-zag timetable, so a group studies in the morning on some days and in the afternoon on others, with the rest of the day given to the activity and excursion programme.

Fifteen hours of lessons a week; each lesson lasts one hour and thirty minutes. Classes are capped at a ratio of one teacher to eighteen students. Teachers hold a teaching certificate; all staff sign a declaration form, obtain a Disclosure check and provide two references. Lessons alternate between morning and afternoon slots across the week (the school calls this a zig-zag timetable).

General English across speaking, listening, reading and writing, with the level set by an entry test rather than chosen in advance. Entry levels run from A1+ and A2 through B1 and B2 to C1 and C1+. Learning continues outside the classroom through the activity programme and the excursions, which visit Edinburgh and Glasgow city centres and the west ends of both cities, Glasgow's museums and Silverburn, Stirling town centre and a Loch Lomond cruise.
