Fact Sheet

From our regular daily life to cutting-edge technology, Robotics Summer Lab offers an astonishing quest to explore the wonders of robotics through this Amazing Expe-rience.

In cooperation with the Robotics Academy, we have designed this English + Robotics summer programme to help younger students learn English while developing the core concepts of problem solving and programming.

This course is ideally suited for children who love to be creative and find their own solutions to problems.

Every day our students will be able to build their own LEGO robots and use them to solve daily life problems and questions. Students will be given the opportunity of using their own creativity to improve upon a robot’s basic design to tackle these issues, all the while learning more and more advanced concepts.

Every week will be packed with fun, excursions and exciting challenges, which test the limits of students’ robots - such as getting through mazes, navigating obstacles, battling other robots and much, much more!

Internation-al students benefit from high standard English tuition plus all our activities are deliv-ered in English by professional coaches alongside English-speaking students. English Native Speaking children even join us in the classrooms.

Together with Queen’s College and the Robotics Academy we have access to brilliant facilities and unique programmes in and around Somerset where we deliver our pro-grammes to the very highest standards. Our staff are committed to ensuring students have a fantastic summer full of memorable experiences.
