General English

Improve your English and enjoy your stay on the beautiful island of Jersey

Learn English on one of our general English courses. Our standard and intensive English courses include a structured programme of English lessons plus a social programme allowing you to explore the island.

Students have two lessons every morning, taught by different teachers, with additional afternoon lessons for those following the intensive course. There’s a focus on communicative skills and English grammar during morning lessons and the latest course materials are used. The afternoon lessons are more conversational.

Documents d’identité pour le voyage

Un passeport est requis pour tous les visiteurs de Jersey. Vous devez vous assurer que votre passeport sera valide durant la totalité de votre voyage.

Les visiteurs venant à Jersey via le Royaume-Uni auront besoin d’une Electronic Travel Authorisation/ETA (autorisation de voyage électronique) à partir d’avril 2025. Les visiteurs venant directement à Jersey depuis l’UE n’auront pas besoin d’ETA avant la fin de 2025.

Vous devez vérifier les conditions de voyage auprès de votre agent de voyage ou de votre compagnie aérienne/opérateur de ferry.

Conditions de paiement

Une fois que votre cours a été validé, vous aurez besoin d'effectuer un premier versement de 200£. Au moins 4 semaines avant le début du cours, vous devrez payer le montant restant. St Brelade’s College se réserve le droit de refuser de fournir les prestations (cours, logement, activités) à l’étudiant si les frais scolaire n’ont pas été réglés complètement.

Des frais d’annulations indépendants s’appliquent aux logements privés.

Les remboursements des frais des cours sont effectués en GBP sur la même carte ou le même compte que celui utilisé pour effectuer le paiement initial. St Brelade’s College décline toute responsabilité en cas de différence dans le montant final reçu en raison des variations du taux de change sous-jacent.

ASSURANCE

Nous conseillons vivement aux étudiants de souscrire une assurance au moment de la réservation du voyage. Cela devrait assurer une couverture dans le cas où l’étudiant doit annuler la formation avant le départ ou pendant son séjour en raison de facteurs tels que la maladie (par exemple, Covid-19), les frais médicaux d’urgence, les frais de voyage et les effets personnels, etc. Une assurance spéciale pour les séjours linguistiques peut être souscrite auprès de certaines compagnies d’assurance.

VISAS ÉTUDIANTS

Les étudiants doivent payer en amont un acompte de 25%, puis le solde restant au moins 4 semaines avant l’arrivée. Dans l’éventualité où le dossier serait annulé, une partie de l’acompte serait remboursée, déduisant une somme 100£ de frais administratifs.

Travel documentation

A passport is required for all visitors to Jersey. You should ensure there is sufficient validity on your passport to cover your trip.

Visitors coming to Jersey via UK will need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) from April 2025. Visitors coming directly to Jersey from the E.U. will not need an ETA until late 2025.

You should check the travel requirements with your travel agent or airline / ferry operator.

Payment terms & conditions

Once your course has been confirmed you will need to pay a deposit of £200. At least 4 weeks before the course starts you will need to pay the remainder of the course fee. St Brelade’s College reserves the right to refuse to provide services to students if the course fees have not been paid.

Course fee refunds are made in £GBP to the same card or account used to make the original payment. St Brelade's College accepts no responsibility for any difference in the final amount received due to changes in the underlying exchange rate.

INSURANCE

We strongly advise students to take out insurance at the time of booking the trip. This should ensure cover if the student needs to cancel the course before departure or during their stay due to factors such as illness (e.g. Covid-19), emergency medical expenses, travel costs and personal belongings etc. Special insurance for language course students can be purchased from some insurance providers.

VISA STUDENTS

Students must pay at least 25% deposit in advance and the balance at least 4 weeks before arrival. In the event that the application is unsuccessful the deposit is returned less a £100 administration fee.
