Students enjoy doing many different activities and sports, because they are having fun but at the same time, they are developing their language skills naturally. All pupils have lessons for half the day and take part in organised sports and activities on the other half. Some activities may be off-site (such as bowling) in which case transport will be provided to and from the venue. Sometimes there are limited numbers for certain activities (such as swimming) in which case students will be asked to sign up beforehand. All activities and sports may be subject to change. All sports and activities are supervised by Bromsgrove staff with the recommended staff : student ratios.

Evening Entertainment

Bromsgrove staff organise a full programme of social events, games and entertainment every evening including discos, talent shows and pizza nights. By encouraging the mixing of nationalities and developing students’ awareness and social skills, we create a harmonious international community in which students can live, study and enjoy themselves. In addition, these events give students the opportunity to practise their spoken English and have lots of fun.
