What level of English is required for an immersion programme in a boarding school ?
The level of English required very much depends on the class that your child will be joining.
The closer the pupil is to the last few years of schooling, the higher the level of English required.
Admission tests to join a boarding school for the final two years will also be much more selective than if the student joined a lower class.
In general terms, students are required to have a basic knowledge of English so they can :
- Understand the instructions given in class
- Take part in class discussions
- Socialise with other students
