2. The College should be informed of any serious learning disabilities that a student might have.

3. If any student behaves in a manner which puts himself/herself at risk, or contravenes British law, or behaves in a manner which, in the view of the College, seriously undermines the smooth running of a course, the College reserves the right to withdraw that student from the course, and to pass on to the parent/guardian/agent all costs associated with that withdrawal. No refund of fees will be made in these circumstances.

4. A scale of cancellation charges will apply to bookings cancelled within two months of the course start date. For details please refer to “Frequent Questions” on our website.

5. A variety of supervised activities/excursions take place during a course, not all of which are specified in our brochure; for example, ice- skating, rock-climbing and canoeing. Unless particular requests are made to the College in writing, the College will not dissuade or prevent any student from participating fully in such excursions or activities.

6. Certain optional off-campus excursions and activities may involve entrance charges, which have to be paid for by the students out of their pocket money. In previous years examples have included entrance charges to an ice rink, ten-pin bowling alley, cinema, laser quest, theatre etc.

7.
