Our teaching staff are experienced professionals who hold a minimum of a bachelor’s degree and a recognized TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) qualification. They are also recognized as qualified English Language Teachers under ACELS, a service of Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI). Our teachers are specially chosen for their ability to relate to young people, and all progress is carefully monitored. In addition to our academic team, our activity leaders and supervisors are carefully selected for their experience and ability to engage with young learners. They play a vital role in ensuring that students have a balanced and enjoyable experience during their time at the camp. Our host families are carefully chosen to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for students. They undergo a thorough vetting process to meet our standards, providing students with a comfortable and supportive home away from home.

All members of staff and all our host families for junior students undergo Garda vetting.

We ensure equal opportunities for all applicants through a transparent admissions process. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations and support services to learners, evaluating additional needs on a case-by-case basis. This approach is detailed in our medical conditions and additional needs policy, available to all stakeholders. Our safeguarding guidelines emphasize the importance of protecting students from all forms of abuse, including bullying. We define bullying as deliberately hurtful behavior, usually repeated over time, where it is difficult for those bullied to defend themselves. Our guidelines outline various forms of bullying—physical, verbal, and emotional—and provide procedures for reporting and addressing such incidents.
