At Buckswood Overseas Summer School (BOSS), we are proud to offer students aged 8 to 17 more than just a world-class summer experience. Alongside our popular seven-week Summer School, we also host a unique, immersive Easter English Course to help students improve their language skills at a crucial point in their educational journeys. Running for three weeks during the Easter break, this course offers the same exceptional programme as our Summer School but with its own distinctive benefits.
If you’ve read our "10 Reasons Why Kids and Teenagers Should Study at Buckswood Overseas Summer School," you’ll know the amazing advantages of joining BOSS. Still, you may wonder, what makes our Spring Course stand out? Here are five reasons why learning English in the UK this Easter with BOSS might be the best decision you make.
1. It’s More Affordable Than Our Summer School
Just like flights cost less during off-peak times, our Spring Course is significantly more affordable than our high-demand Summer School. The summer holidays are a busy time for students from all over the world, meaning our Summer School fills up fast. Easter, however, tends to be quieter internationally, so we’re able to offer the same high-quality programme at a reduced rate for students joining the Spring Course. You save £130 per week, all while enjoying a premium language-learning experience!
If cost-effectiveness is important to you, Easter could be the ideal time to take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
2. You’ll Enjoy Cooler, Comfortable Weather
While we all think of the UK as a chilly place, summers here can surprise you with their heat. Even in recent years, we’ve had students from much hotter climates, like Saudi Arabia, saying, "It’s too hot!" During Easter, the UK’s gentle spring weather is perfect for concentrating on your studies, enjoying excursions, and avoiding any extreme heat.
Spring temperatures hover nicely around 12°C (54°F) for highs and 4°C (39°F) for lows — ideal for all kinds of activities. And don’t worry about feeling cold inside; our facilities at BOSS are beautifully heated, ensuring you’re always comfortable.
3. A Smaller, More Intimate Experience
At BOSS, our Spring Course typically welcomes fewer than 100 students, compared to over 200 during the summer months. This smaller group size creates an intimate learning environment with more personalized attention. A higher staff-to-student ratio means students have even greater chances to converse in English, ensuring faster fluency and confidence-building.
This setup not only improves language skills but also fosters closer friendships, stronger group bonds, and an enriched overall experience. You’ll leave not just with better English but also with new friends from all over the world.
4. Advanced English Learning Opportunities
Many of our Spring Course participants come from bilingual schools or environments where English is already widely spoken, such as Dubai and Bangkok. This means the overall level of English among students is higher, creating a dynamic and inspiring setting.
Being surrounded by fluent speakers allows students to push their own linguistic boundaries. It’s about stepping out of comfort zones, enhancing both listening and speaking abilities, and growing immeasurably in the process.
5. Quieter Excursions and Better Sightseeing Opportunities
At Buckswood Overseas Summer School, we know how important cultural immersion is to effective language learning. That’s why our courses include exciting trips to iconic destinations across the southeast of England, like London and Brighton.
During Easter, there are fewer tourists, meaning you’ll skip the long queues and enjoy uninterrupted exploration of these marvellous sights. With less traffic on the roads and smaller crowds at attractions, you’ll spend more time soaking in the culture, history, and atmosphere — stress-free. Whether it’s fast-track entry at the London Eye or leisurely walks around Brighton, you'll appreciate the difference springtime brings.
