Will my child be supervised 24 hours a day ?

It is important here to distinguish between a summer camp and a language course.

Summer camps are designed for children who are under-age, and they provide comprehensive supervision 24 hours a day.

The children follow a well-established timetable with a series of lessons, activities and excursions that take up the entire day from sunrise to sunset.

Depending on the age of the child, they are allowed some freedom, especially during excursions.

Language courses are designed for students from the age of 16 who no longer want to be in a supervised environment.

This means language schools, which offer courses of different intensities together with the option of sitting a language exam. These schools may put on a range of activities for students to fill their afternoons, but these are never mandatory.

If a student is staying in a hall of residence, they will be responsible for their curfew.

If a student is staying with a host family, they will have to comply with the rules of the house.
