International Students

What a unique environment and atmosphere, in which a young overseas student can learn the English language. Overseas pupils have succeeded strongly at Hereworth because they feel at ease in the beautiful surroundings and they respond positively to the easier pace of life, the carefully structured schedule of studies and the sensitive, caring approach of the teachers.
