Residential Programme
Young Learner (14-17 years)
Our summer school and residence are located in Dublin city centre, close to all the museums, shopping areas and places of interest. Lessons take place in the prestigious Belvedere College, one of Ireland’s most famous private schools. There are 20 X 45 min lessons (15 hours) per week, and students enjoy a full programme of five afternoon and five evening activities, as well as a full day excursion outside Dublin on Saturday.
Students stay at Kavanagh Court student residence, a 7-minute walk from the school, where they are supervised by ISI staff and accompanied to school each day. Each student has their own single bedroom and ensuite bathroom, and an ISI staff member is resident in the building to supervise.
ISI’s highly-qualified teachers deliver a well-planned syllabus of English lessons. The course includes a focus on the core English language skills with a particular emphasis on speaking. All students are encouraged to practise their English as much as possible during activities and free time.
