Based in Bournemouth, a well known centre for students wishing to learn English, Capital School of English is a relative newcomer but in the short space of 5 years they have established themselves as a leading English language school in Bournemouth.
Spencer Fordham, the Principal explained that “at Capital, being a small and friendly school, we like to treat all our students as individuals, after all they are leaving their homes and countries to come and live and experience the English way of life for up to a year. Students come to learn English in Bournemouth because it is such a vibrant town within easy reach of London, the Jurassic Coast and the New Forest. We often find students returning to us as they enjoy learning English in Bournemouth and especially at Capital School”.Having reached their fifth anniversary Capital are not resting on their laurels as they have developed links with the Arts Institute, Bournemouth to provide Summer Junior Courses for individuals and groups where they can enjoy learning English with other students aged from 14 – 18 in a fun environment. The fun doesn’t stop there as after class the students are then involved in a number of afternoon and evening activities that helps supplement everything they learn at their Bournemouth English school including beach games and activities, day trips to London, Bath, Oxford, the Purbecks and more.
Students usually stay with a Host Family or Homestay as they are known, here they will add to their English course in Bournemouth by integrating with local families learning about how we live and taking every opportunity to use the language they have developed in class.
Outside of the busy summer period students looking enhance their employment opportunities or further education often enrol for the academic year to learn English in Bournemouth and progress to taking one of the recognised exams that will improve their lives in this ever shrinking world where the English language still has an important role to play in worldwide business.
