At Claremont, we celebrate each student’s linguistic heritage, fostering an environment where languages merge fluidly to enhance learning and promote global perspectives. In our lessons, we strive to create an inspiring, inclusive space where amazing learning happens through active use and appreciation of multiple languages. Recognizing and maintaining home languages is crucial, with parents and carers playing a vital role in our linguistic community. We believe that our multilingual vision reflects our commitment to preparing students for an ever-shrinking world where global connections are essential.
Programme overview
The Claremont Pre-High School and Pre-A Level programmes both aim to meet the needs of our international students, for whom English is a second language.
They are carefully designed for the specific needs of students who wish to progress onto an academic course, with intensive English language lessons in small classes, led by specialist language teachers. Both programmes meet the educational and emotional needs of our learners and introduce them to the UK curriculum in a supportive and inclusive environment.
The programmes are unique, in so far as they combine a careful mix of intensive English language tuition, alongside whole school classes and a broad co-curricular programme. This ensures that our international students are fully integrated and valued members of our community.
Get in touch
Claremont also actively encourages students to take GCSEs and A Levels in their mother tongue language. This will often enhance any potential University application.
