Sobre Southbourne School of English

Southbourne School of English is a family run school that was established in 1966. It is located in a beautiful residential area of Bournemouth where young families and professionals live. It is in a friendly, safe and clean area and is on very good bus routes, and close to a railway station. It is only a short walk from the local high street and 10 minutes to the beautiful beach, which is one of the longest sandy beaches in England. All our hosts are within walking distance of the school.

We offer first class education in a welcoming and caring environment. We have interactive smart-boards in all of our 22 classrooms. We provide a comfortable learning experience for our students as all our rooms have air-conditioning and heating systems and comfortable classroom furniture. Our student cafeteria can seat 110 students and has an internet area with 10 computers. There is excellent free Wi-Fi throughout the school for students with smart phones and tablets. When the weather is good, the garden has plenty of space to enjoy break and lunch time. We have the capacity for 300 students in the winter months and 330 in the summer months.

The school is open all year round for individual adult students and juniors including groups from 10 years upwards. Our students live with local home-stay that are ALL within easy walking distance of the school. Hosts that accommodate young students are police checked to make sure they are suitable and all hosts are interviewed and visited regularly by our accommodation officer. We also have a dedicated welfare officer to assist and support students. Many of our hosts have been working with us for many years and love meeting students from around the world.
