Lively and informative lessons
Kaplan uses a set of teaching materials specially designed for juniors. Our skilled and friendly teachers will ensure that all lessons offer juniors a diverse mix of activities. We strive to provide courses that are both enjoyable and challenging to maximize your learning at our junior English school.
High-calibre school staff for effective learning
All of Kaplan's junior English schools have a Course Director, who leads a team of trained, experienced and professional teachers. Courses emphasize building confidence and developing English language fluency in a lively and authentic language context.
Tailored teaching and careful monitoring
Students are taught in international classes according to their level of English, which is assessed at the beginning of their junior English course. Throughout the course, each student's progress is monitored by our school staff.
Top priority to student welfare
While juniors are abroad at our English school in Bath, we provide high staffing levels to ensure quality care and welfare for juniors when away from home. Parents can therefore rest assured that their children are in safe hands during their Kaplan junior English course. For more information on Student Welfare click here.
