Earlscliffe College is located in the safe town of Folkestone in the south-east of England (county of Kent), 5 minutes' walk from the beach and the town centre. Folkestone is known as the gateway to Europe, being on the closest side of the English Channel to France, yet only an hour's drive from London.
The college occupies a beautiful period building dating back to 1870. The campus consists of eight Victorian and Edwardian buildings, all recently refurbished. The school is a short walk from the elegant Leas promenade, beach, shops and high-speed rail.
Earlscliffe College is a small school for international students, specialising in preparing senior pupils for entry to the world's best universities. In the summer, the school offers rigorous courses for advanced students and those who want the British boarding experience.
Key factors
- The perfect combination of study, cultural activities, sport and travel.
- A great location in a seaside town that is a popular holiday destination. It has a warm climate, lots of sunshine, beautiful beaches and a relaxed atmosphere.
- Excellent accommodation and food.
- Maximum 12 students per class.
Programme
The program includes 20 lessons (16 hours) per week, taught by qualified teachers in small groups of up to 12 students. Students are divided into classes according to their age (Juniors aged 8-12 and Seniors aged 13-17) and English proficiency.
Additional private lessons with a teacher or small group lessons are available for 4 hours per week.
Ages 8-12
For younger students (ages 8-12), morning classes focus on the four core skills: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. After lunch, children participate in interactive project-based lessons, including theater, music, film, drawing, and crafts.
Ages 13-17
For older students (ages 13 and up, English level B1+), the school offers the Think Global! course, which helps develop important soft skills: critical thinking, communication, and teamwork. This program is designed to improve language skills using UNESCO's "four pillars of learning": learning to know; learning to do; learning to be; and learning to live together.
By exploring and discussing global topics using 21st-century learning skills, students will improve all four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing).
Through weekly course topics, students will begin to think critically about pressing 21st-century global issues, develop communication skills for debate, and create presentations. Students will use their creativity to complete project work, from short films to writing for the school online magazine.
Course topics:
- Civilization and Society: Culture and Identity, Peace and Conflict, Global Issues, and the Changing State of Our World
- Art, Film, and Media Festival
- How to Become 21st-Century Citizens Inspired by the Global Sustainable Development Goals
- STEM Week, where students work on science, technology, engineering, and math projects
Course highlight: UNESCO debates every Thursday
