The attention to the student, with all the teaching and non-teaching staff always aware of your needs, both inside and outside the school. The facilities are exceptional: coffee, tea, microwave, fridge, table football, outdoor terraces, dining room... Impressive. Very complete social program.

Q&A - Questions and answers about Bristol
- I would like to go to Bristol to improve my speaking skills. I think the best thing would be to stay with a family who can give me the opportunity to practise my English more, even if I let you advise me.“The schools we work with offer a wide range of accommodation (homestay, single or shared rooms in flats or residences, etc.).
