Think Global! is designed not only to maximise a student’s language development but to do this through using UNESCO’s ‘Four pillars of learning’: learning to know; learning to do; learning to be and learning to live together.
Think Global! for 13-17 year olds
This course drives language development by encouraging its learners to adopt “the values, attitudes and behaviours that support responsible global citizenship” (Unesco)

Our activities
In addition to the academic enrichment events on all courses, Earlscliffe offers a balance of sports, cultural events, arts and crafts, fun games, walks and competitions, so there is something for everyone on the programme. Our staff organise and supervise all these activities after the day’s lessons have finished.
Students play volleyball, basketball, badminton, billiards and table tennis on-site. Our supervised afternoon and evening activities include karaoke nights; football; softball; ‘Earlscliffe’s Got Talent’; swimming; themed disco nights; tennis; rounders; ‘Jeux sans Frontières’ and quiz nights, to name just a few.
Regular daytime and evening beach trips are a popular part of the week’s activities.
We are fortunate to be close to Folkestone’s town centre and its shops, the artistic Creative Quarter and the beach, all of which offer our students moments of discovery and relaxation.
We use the excellent facilities provided at the Three Hills and Folkestone sports centres, not to mention the new multi-storey skate park!
