English as a Foreign Language

About the BABSSCo teachers

Students are taught by qualified EFL (English as a Foreign Language) teachers. Many of them have been teaching for us for several years and are experienced in teaching young learners. Our teachers are friendly and enthusiastic and all are cleared through a police check.

A stimulating way to learn English

  • 15 hours (including lesson breaks) of English tuition per week are given on the Harrow School Courses for younger students (aged 10 - 12) and on all courses at Heathfield School.
  • 20 hours (including lesson breaks) of English tuition per week are given on all our other English Language courses.
  • The maximum class size is 16, average class size is 10-12.

Students are taught through a variety of methods:

Classroom lessons

Students will improve language skills through a range of interesting and exciting activities. Teachers use textbooks and a range of language material chosen according to students’ level from our extensive BABSSCo resources, as well as the internet, television, video and radio resources.

Out and about

The BABSSCo teachers take the children out and about to practise their English, for example, in a Post Office, a station or bank.

Language activities

Have fun while improving spoken English through songs, games, role-plays and drama sessions.

Producing a course diary, class project or film

Children work in a team or on their own to create a souvenir of their time on the course, e.g. a course diary, class project, magazine or perhaps a film

BABSSCo provides:

  • Assessment on arrival
  • Progress monitoring
  • End of course test
  • End of course report and certificate
  • Free text book and range of language materials

At the end of the course there is a prizegiving ceremony where you receive a certificate. We also give you a group photograph so you can remember your friends and the staff on your BABSSCo course. Your academic report is posted to you after the course.
