Study Abroad Programmes

Study Abroad in England Course

Aim

We aim to foster students who wish to find their place to international society.

Keiai Gakuen senior high school has led the way in establishing its own study abroad programme.

The high school gives them credits based on their application.

The study abroad system guides our students from entrance to post-graduation.

Three year process

When students are freshman, we provide those who wish to study abroad with special English-communication and comparative culture instruction.

When they become sophomore, they go abroad for one year.
From April to June, they stay in dormitories at Alexander's international school and learn to live in the U.K.
From July, They go to Sheffield to stay with their host families and study courses in English at The Sheffield campus.
When the programme comes to an end, credits are given to them.

When they become senior, we consolidate speaking English skills, paving the way for them to achieve higher grades. We assume our responsibility in giving career guidance.

During the homestay, each hostfamily serves meals. As students are regarded as family members, it is necessary for them to help with the housework.

Management

Japanese staff members go with the students during the course. They cooperate with the coordinators and English teachers concerning the course in the country.
