Best for International Students

Unlike traditional boarding schools in the UK, everyone in a CATS class is in the same situation – away from home, needing help to acclimatise, wanting to make new friends and committed to improving their English rapidly. Everything we do is aimed at helping you achieve this, from teachers who know how to adapt lessons to build conﬁdence in English to house parents who provide care and concern during your stay.

Best for boarding

Our campuses offer single and double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms in purpose built accommodation, because we know if you are comfortable and relaxed in your surroundings you will ﬂourish academically, socially and emotionally. Throughout your time with us, you will be treated as a young adult. Our houseparents are available 24 hours per day to provide the support and nurturing you need to thrive.
