Foreign students minds opened to British Culture

PRLog (Press Release) - Mar. 3, 2013 - Students are drawn to London not just to learn the Queen’s English but also to discover more about British Culture and our way of life.  They marvel at the buildings that make the city’s iconic skyline like the Shard and the London Eye to Tower Bridge and Big Ben.  They are fascinated by the Royal History of King’s & Queen’s and the Tower of London to the changing face of the city from Punks in Camden to urban graffiti and Banksie.  They relish the British heritage brought to life at Shakespeare’s Globe or musicals in the West End and are fascinated by Britain’s obsession with celebrities at Madame Tussauds.

A summer study vacation in the UK is now a vital part of the education of most 16 – 20 year olds.  Yet despite a burgeoning education sector in London there are very few institutions that can offer campus accommodation and cultural learning in the heart of London.  The Stay Academy in Camden offers a truly unique experience.  Students have en suite luxury studio accommodation, an all-encompassing programme of daily cultural outings accompanied by qualified teachers, English language tuition delivered by the renowned SKOLA group  on campus, all meals and transport around London, and organised sports and leisure activities.  

Andy Cossey, Principal of SKOLA English in London, said ‘The London Cultural Course coupled with The Stay Academy’s luxury studio accommodation in the heart of London is to my knowledge a unique package.  Especially when aimed at the 16 – 20 year old market where parents want their children to enjoy London but be in a safe and secure environment.’

James Herbertson, Sales Manager of The Stay Academy, said ‘We are looking forward to working with SKOLA and their academic team to deliver a quality and exclusive learning experience.  Students will be able to easily absorb British Culture and improve their confidence at English rapidly with Skola’s dedicated academic team.  Above all students will have lots of fun and take away the memory for the rest of their lives.’

Skola is an international education group established in 1969.  The Stay Academy is the latest offering from The Stay Club @ London.  The Stay Club @ London are developing six luxury accommodation properties & education sites at key London locations: Willesden, Camden, Colindale, Hanger Lane, Kentish Town and Chalk Farm.
