Cancellation of Summer School 2021
We are very sorry: we have taken the very difficult decision to cancel summer school 2021.
If you have a booking, please complete the form at the end of this article.
We are very, very sorry to disappoint the students who were so much looking forward to connecting with other teenagers from all over the world this summer.
Some of the many factors behind our decision to cancel summer school:
Certainty for parents:
We want to give parents certainty as far as possible in advance so that they can make alternative plans.
Quality control:
We want to give students the full More Than English experience and this will be difficult to deliver in an operating environment full of uncertainty
Lack of countries now predicted to reach green category status:
Although most of Europe is expected to reach 40% vaccination of the adult population (at least one dose) by early to mid-June, which is important for a country to be classified as green in the UK’s travel system, it seems that one of the other important criteria, namely a high level of biometric testing for variants, will not be widely reached and therefore most European countries could remain amber (yellow).
New variants:
Concerns over the new variant B.1.617.2 is causing governments including the UK government to change international travel policies at short notice.
Thank you parents and partners
We would like to thank all the parents and partners who, despite all the uncertainty, booked places for their children at More Than English this summer. We really appreciate what you did.
