Accommodation

At Taunton Summer School, students find accommodation in one of two homely boarding houses, Thone or The Grange. Each house provides bedrooms that host between three to six students, and to promote English communication, they’re often paired with peers of different native languages. This careful pairing greatly accentuates their English language proficiency. The size of Taunton’s summer courses is optimally structured to ensure both a sense of community and individualised attention, making each student’s experience safe, memorable, and unparalleled.

The familial ambiance of the school is maintained by seasoned House Parents and dedicated boarding staff. A commendable student-staff ratio ensures consistent support and guidance. Health is prioritised with a dedicated matron, accessible nurses, and doctors, and a hospital within a 10-minute reach. This nurturing environment ensures that students, irrespective of their origins, quickly assimilate, finding comfort and assurance in their new ‘family’ and companions.
