OUR HOMESTAY SCHOOLS

Cognita schools provide the best academic traditions of independent education with a contemporary and fresh approach. Our schools offer young people the freedom to choose from a vast array of interesting and stimulating subjects as well as extracurricular activities.

All Cognita schools offer high levels of academic and pastoral support and state-of-the-art technology, combined with specialist English language tuition to ensure international students can fully access the curriculum and develop their fluency in both spoken and written English.

 

Our university councillors have a detailed understanding of the entry requirements of a wide range of British and international universities and provide expert advice on university selection and applications.

Our schools offer homestay options with carefully chosen families, who often have lived abroad themselves and understand what it is like to be a visitor in a new country.
