English as a Foreign Language

Rendcomb College is set in a large Country Estate in The Costwolds in the South West of England. The diverse backdrop of Rendcomb, its buildings and village provides our students with a secure and undisturbed home from which to study and develop into well rounded and happy young adults.

We welcome boys and girls at Rendcomb from many countries across the world, all bringing with them a wide diversity of cultures and religions. Our aim is to integrate them fully into the school and to British life. We respect everyone’s beliefs and customs and ensure that we celebrate important dates in everyone's calendar.

There is a strong feeling of community in the school and the students are cheerful and positive during their time here. They live in well equipped boarding houses with caring and inspirational house parents. The houses are fully integrated and we positively encourage the International Students to make friends with everyone throughout the school, not only does this help their spoken English but adds to their Boarding School experience.

Our emphasis on academic excellence is instilled in all of our students and we offer dedicated English tuition(culminating in External Examinations such as IELTS and PET) to International Students so that they can excel in their chosen subject and progress to the university of their choice. Many of our International Students go on to the top UK Universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, Bristol, UCL, Durham and Warwick amongst others.
