Academic Life at BEET

Overview

Your First Day

On the first morning, after welcoming you to the school, we give you an Entry Test; this is followed by a tour of Bournemouth and a Getting-to-Know-You session (on preferred start dates). In the Induction Meeting we explain how the school operates, how to live in England and give you your individual course timetable. You will also receive a Student Guide to Bournemouth and life in England.

Your Progress

Throughout the course, your teachers monitor your progress carefully and give you regular tests. You are always free to discuss your studies with your teachers or the Director of Studies.

Homework

Homework forms an important part of your course. The amount depends on the type of course you are following, but you should expect to do 1 to 2 hours a day.

Certificate of Studies

At the end of your course, you will receive a Certificate of Studies, subject to satisfactory attendance and performance. If requested, a monthly progress report can be sent to your sponsor.

Newsbeet

BEET publishes a bimonthly magazine called Newsbeet, to which all students are invited to contribute. The magazine is an interesting forum for expressing views of Britain, places you have visited, films you have seen etc. The magazine also contains recipes, poetry, articles about students' own countries, their customs, politics, arts etc.
