One of the sunniest seaside resorts in England, Folkestone is enormously popular with Concorde International students who have been visiting the town for over 20 years.

Situated on the south coast, the town has a colourful  harbour, sandy beach, amusement park and lots of leisure facilities for young people.

Folkestone's 'Garden Coast' offers a safe and green environment. The town shopping centre is mainly pedestrian, and for those who want the ultimate shopping experience; Europe's largest shopping plaza at Bluewater is just a short drive a way.

The School
Located in a pleasant residential area and set in spacious grounds with playing fileds, the school provides security and easy access routes to London.

There is a large hall for student meetings, drama sessions and 'Language in Action' workshops. All classrooms are large and well decorated.

The full day excursion to London is one of the summer school highlights. The capital is only 90 minutes away and students have time to see the main attractions, visit a museum or take a river trip on the Thames.

For more information on the school, visit the Web site: www.shepway.gov.uk

Sports facilities
Swimming, tennis, basketball and football are all available at the town's excellent sports centre - it even has a dry ski slope!

Overlooking the East Cliff and sands is the pitch-and-putt golf course, popular with students of every age.
