Part of being a student...is making new friends and enjoying new experiences.

At Stafford House, you’ll be free to enjoy the lifestyle that is such an important part of experiencing England, and that lifestyle will help you to enjoy learning and using your skills in English.

What's on at Stafford House

How do I get involved?

You’ll have plenty of time to become a part of School life, to make friends, and to socialise and relax with other students in our common room.

During your time with us, you will choose from a great variety of social activities, sports and excursions.

These are organised for you by our teachers and a team of dedicated activity organisers, who will also be happy to make it easy for you to follow your own particular interests.

Activities and excursions

  • Saturday excursions to London, Cambridge, Brighton and Windsor (home of the Queen).
  • Opportunities to visit museums, art galleries, the Law Courts and the Houses of Parliament.
  • Regular outings to theatres, cinemas, concerts, bowling and adventure parks.
  • Sports opportunities that include soccer, badminton, basketball, squash, tennis, swimming and fitness training.
