Summer Boarding Courses
Award-Winning Summer Schools
Founded in 2009, SBC is the first, and currently only, summer school provider in the UK to have achieved a perfect 15 Areas of Strength in a British Council inspection. The inspections cover a wide range of areas including Care of Students, Safeguarding Under 18s, Teaching, Course Design, and Leisure Opportunities. The EL Gazette publishes a league table based on these results, and SBC has been ranked Number 1 in 2018, 2019, and 2020. We are very proud of this achievement and will continue to grow and develop our courses to offer students extraordinary experiences.
