St Giles runs its Canterbury course out of the King’s School, one of the most prestigious colleges in the UK. The King’s School has a history dating back to 597 AD, making it the oldest site on which a school has been located in England. Modern accommodation, teaching, and recreational facilities combined with the medieval school buildings and grounds offer a magical experience. Lessons take place in the grounds of Canterbury Cathedral, whilst the residential accommodation is on the St Augustine’s Abbey site, just a five minute walk away.
Our Canterbury centre offers a traditional English boarding school experience to older students, whilst also providing additional levels of supervision and care for younger students. The school’s recreation centre is a short distance away, boasting excellent sports facilities which our students use regularly. Our English Plus Sport Options take place here on two afternoons per week and offer students the chance to receive tuition from experienced coaches to improve their techniques and skills.
