Positive aspects of school
"The teachers are very friendly and helpful, and you can always ask for support.
Students come from different age groups, but everyone is kind, and the overall atmosphere at the school is really pleasant. You can even get individual advice for exam preparation.
Classes are small, and during breaks you can enjoy chatting with classmates and teachers.
There are plenty of after-school activities, and both the classrooms and restrooms are clean.
You can also borrow various reference books to study at home."
Negative aspects
"I don’t have any particular complaints."

City/place
"The city is one of the most multicultural areas in the UK, and local people are very welcoming towards foreigners.
There are many English-learning communities, so you have lots of chances to practice English and experience other cultures outside of school.
Since it’s a university town, it feels very safe, and you can live comfortably without being overly cautious."

Negative aspects
"It's a little big. It would be better if the classes were divided into smaller groups."
