What ISI say about us…Safeguarding practices in the school are excellent and are subject to rigorous monitoring and review by senior managers.


Welfare

Our rules for school and for accommodation are very clear and are carefully designed to ensure the safety and comfort of our students. During students’ first day induction our code of conduct and information on safety and welfare is presented clearly and carefully. All students are provided with a summer school handbook so they know what behaviour is expected from them both inside and outside of school. Our summer school induction and handbook also ensure students and group leaders know what to expect in terms of accommodation and welfare support from our staff.

• We have a dedicated welfare officer and summer centre manager available to help with any problems that our students may have.

• Our group leaders meet with our summer school management team every day to make sure that each and every student is safe and well. They discuss all aspects of the programme – welfare, accommodation, meals, learning, excursions and activities - to ensure any issues are identified and resolved as quickly as possible.

• There is an allocated homeroom in the college so that our students can meet with their group leader before school, afternoon excursions and evening activities.

• Our live-in staff in residences provide welfare support for students out of regular school hours.

• All of our students have a personal ID card with emergency contact information.

• A 24-hour emergency contact number is provided for students and group leaders.

• We require all students to have insurance to ensure their financial and personal security. ETOs / Group Leaders are required provide us with policy details for each student.

• All of our staff, including externally hired staff such as coach drivers, must provide references before we hire them and they are fully checked by the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).

Meals Our summer school programme is busy and active. Our students need good quality food which is healthy and varied. We work closely with the catering team to ensure we provide nutritious meals for our students, group leaders and staff.

On weekdays with lessons, students in residence have breakfast, hot lunch and dinner at the colleges. On weekends and full excursion days, packed breakfasts and lunches are provided with an evening meal either at the colleges or in a restaurant.

Homestay hosts provide breakfast every day for their students. On weekdays with lessons, hot lunch is provided at the colleges. On excursion days, hosts provide packed lunch. Most evening meals are taken with the homestay hosts. When homestay students have a long excursion day or an evening activity, we provide an evening meal either at the college or in a restaurant.

It is our first priority to ensure our students and group leaders are safe, happy and comfortable while with us at Liverpool School of English. We understand that high quality accommodation and welfare support is the most important aspect of any summer school programme.

The accommodationis very safe and we can

play there in the common areas. I’ve made lot of new friends from Italy

and Brazil.

Habib, Israel
