Our Art and Culture course combines our General English course with touring the cultural highlights of Cornwall. Expect to visit hidden beaches, art galleries, old English estates and gardens, restaurants, and Rosamunde Pilcher’s Cornwall. This is an unforgettable course, designed to breathe fresh air into your English learning.
At the end of a Skool course you will be a better speaker, reader and writer in English. You will feel like you have learned in a personalised way, far from busy classrooms, and away from the crowd. Some people might feel that they will learn better in large class sizes, but that is not what we offer at Skool.
Our English with Art and Culture course is designed for the discerning language student. We offer a varied menu of tuition each morning, placing emphasis on addressing your strengths and weaknesses in English language, whether spoken, written or in reading. We will explore grammar rules, tenses, and the idiosyncrasies of English.
Each afternoon we will explore Cornwall, and we’ll curate its history and culture. We’ll show you the sights and experiences that you can’t find on a map. We’ll tailor the programme to suit your capabilities. Perhaps you are interested in a walking adventure, and keen to spend your afternoons visiting the ruined mines on the Atlantic coast path? Perhaps you are more interested in a relaxed language tour, visiting English country houses, museums, galleries and restaurants?
Whatever you are interested in culturally, our expert teachers can guide you. We regularly visit:
The Minack Theatre
Lanhydrock House
Wheal Coates (Poldark’s Mine)
St Michael’s Mount
The Atlantic Coast Path
St Ives
The Tate Gallery
The Barbara Hepworth Museum
The Lost Gardens of Heligan
The Eden Project
Porthcurno Beach
Studying English should not be restricted to a classroom. We will personally guide you around Cornwall – a land steeped in beauty, art, myth and freedom. Explore ‘the road less travelled by’, make memories, become a more confident speaker, writer, and communicator in English. Each afternoon we will explore Cornwall with you, and we’ll curate its history and culture.
Skool is situated in the historic remnants of an old tin mine’s engine house in Wheal Kitty next to St Agnes, a picturesque village on the north Cornwall coast which is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a Designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A few steps from the classroom, magnificent granite cliffs mark the edge of the earth and the beginning of the wild Atlantic Ocean.
St Agnes’ three pristine beaches – Trevaunance, Trevellas and Chapel Porth – are breathtaking and easily accessible. The village itself is a very pretty one and home to an eclectic range of boutique restaurants and English pubs, serving locally caught fish and Cornish ale and cider. St Agnes is a short car ride from Newquay airport and Truro train station. Its position and magical countryside make it a popular destination for discerning visitors, keen to escape the busy tourist traps.
