Sidcot Academic English School (overseas)

Sidcot Academic English School was set up in September 1998 in response to the growing numbers of overseas students wishing to study at Sidcot School who need a foundation course in the language and academic skills required to achieve success at A Level.

The AES has been very successful and many students have transferred to Sidcot School to study a two-year A Level course and then achieved places at good universities. In its current form it prepares students for A level and for the International Baccalaureate.

Our students range from lower-intermediate to upper-intermediate level competency in English and are aged from 15 to 17.  Students are admitted at any time during the academic year, with main entry points in September, January and April.

We operate on a termly timetable system. It is expected that pupils will spend a full academic year at Sidcot Academic English School.

At the end of the course our students may gain certification within the internationally recognised Cambridge University EFL examination structure or at GCSE or IGCSE levels.

The AES curriculum is designed to give our students the linguistic and cultural knowledge required to be successful in a British secondary school and in a British university thereafter.
