Academic Summer is the home of versatile summer learning, exciting trips and fun activities.

150681060965. Students aged 7-12 can join Adventurers, a full boarding programme which stretches students’ academic curiosity, develops their confidence and improves their English. The programme’s objective is to help all students to achieve their personal best in everything they do. Every student is unique, so we teach them to focus on their strengths and not to compare themselves to others.

Lessons are lively and cross-curricular which means that students will cover various topics and subjects in one single lesson. For example, a history lesson will also develop a child’s skills in drama, design technology and geography. What’s great about this approach is that it allows students to put their learning into practice and to use their strengths in one area to support themselves in areas where they are less confident.

Learning can be an exhilarating adventure and we're here to help you make the most of it. Academic Adventurers' broad range of leisure activities will introduce students to talent shows, charity events, treasure hunts, sports, spy missions, quizzes, dance or cookery workshops. There are endless opportunities to learn new skills and make friends along the way. We also run full-day trips during the week and  at the weekend to some of the UK’s most iconic sights including London, Oxford, Windsor, Woodlands Adventure park and much more.

Camp counsellors are always available to support, encourage and celebrate our campers. Teachers will use tutor times to talk about how they are finding life at the school and to support anyone who might be struggling in their new environment. Through praise and encouragement, we will help students to see how far they have come and how much they can do if they continue to work hard. We believe that this will help all of the students to achieve success in all areas of academic and social life.

Academic Adventurers day programme will run at Sidcot School near Bristol in July and August. You can choose to come from 2 to 4 weeks.
