Overview
English Summer Courses in London for Children Aged 5-17 from 15th June - 29th August 2026. SKOLA is a premier English language school in central London.
English Summer Programme for 5 to 9-year-olds
Students aged 7-9 year olds start in SKOLA Regent's Park on 15th June until the 4th July. They then switch to SKOLA Gloucester Gate, where 5-6 year olds can also study and learn in dedicated classrooms for this age group from 6th July - 14th August 2026. 7-9-year-olds then learn at SKOLA Regent's Park for the last two week.
Each week has a theme for the lessons, the Discover London visits and Friday party. For example: THE NATURAL WORLD, with visits to the London Aquarium or the Natural History Museum.
Morning English classes develop grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing and speaking. After sports and play in the park, students develop their English through tasks leading to a final presentation on Friday. For half-day students, it is advised to add an excursion for £50 so students can go on the Wednesday excursion and £50 for the Friday afternoon for presentations and the party.
Students can add the Saturday excursion but must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and depart from SKOLA Regent's Park.
English Summer Programme for 10 to 17-year-olds
The programme is based in SKOLA Regent's Park with spacious classrooms and great sports facilities from 15th June to 29th August 2026.
Each week has a theme for the lessons, the Discover London visits, and the activities. For example, London Calling - a geography-based week has visits to the London Eye and the National Portrait Gallery. Lessons build language around the theme including grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, and speaking.
Our 10-12 year olds follow our London Explorers course which includes two hours per week to develop their exploring skills. Our 13 - 17 year olds follow our London Leaders course with two hours per week to develop their leadership skills.
Students develop work related to all the learning and the visits, such as a poster, a talk, a play, or even a video. They present their work to the school on Friday afternoons before the party.
SKOLA Winter School
In January and Easter, SKOLA runs English plus Study Trips in London. Students study for 3 hours each day in SKOLA Regent's Park, have lunch, and then visit London's main museums and sightseeing locations. It is a great way to improve your English, make friends from other cultures and Discover London. All students deliver a presentation, in English, on Friday afternoon.
