Join our Language School

Our Foundation Learners programme is carefully designed to introduce children to English in a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment, where confidence grows naturally, and learning feels enjoyable.

We combine traditional teaching methods with a structured phonics approach and storytelling-based learning, helping children develop strong foundations in sounds, vocabulary, listening, and early reading skills.

At this stage, our focus is on:

• building early literacy skills through phonics
• developing listening and speaking confidence
• helping children feel safe, supported, and proud of their progress

Starters Academy is designed to support children as they move from early language learning to a more structured and confident use of English.

Teaching is delivered entirely in English and follows Cambridge English-aligned coursebooks.

Our programme builds strong foundations across all key areas of language:

• phonics and accurate pronunciation
• grammar and vocabulary 
• reading comprehension
• reading for pleasure

A distinctive feature of Starters Academy is our school library, where children have the opportunity to borrow unique and diverse English books.

Starters Academy provides a balanced, supportive learning environment where children progress steadily, build confidence, and develop a genuine love for the English language.

Movers Academy builds on the strong foundations developed in Starters Academy, introducing a more structured and academically focused approach to learning English.

Teaching is delivered entirely in English and follows Cambridge English–aligned coursebooks.

At this stage, greater emphasis is placed on:

• grammar accuracy and expanding vocabulary
• reading comprehension and independent reading
• speaking through dialogue, debate, and guided discussion
• conversational games that develop fluency and confidence 

Reading continues to play an important role. Learners are encouraged to borrow books from our school library, where a diverse and carefully selected range of English books supports both language development and a growing enjoyment of reading.

Flyers Academy is designed for learners who are ready for a more advanced, structured approach to English while continuing to develop confidence and enjoyment in learning.

Access to our school library continues to support reading for pleasure, exposing learners to a broad and diverse range of English texts.
