Short Term Stays

Our short-term students attend Pocklington School for one or two terms, starting at the beginning of the Michaelmas, Lent or Summer term (in September, January or April).  Students value all experiences that being a boarder at Pocklington School brings, as well as making big improvements with their English language skills.  Short-term boarders are offered EAL lessons and are quickly immersed into life in our boarding community, enjoying all the opportunities our longer-term students enjoy.  We regularly have siblings, friends and family of former students joining us for a short-term stay knowing that their stay will also be a memorable one.   

Short-term students will be given a bespoke timetable, accounting for subjects currently being studied, their native language and interests.

All students will take a dynamic learning language test on arrival with us at Pocklington School to establish their current level of English the result of which determine which resources will be used to meet the student’s individual needs.

Testimonials from former short-term students:
