General English - Explore the cultural heritage of Cornwall

Skool Cornwall offers exclusive, adults only, language courses in a unique location. We are based in St. Agnes, a small, picturesque Cornish coastal village in an officially designated Area of ​​Outstanding Natural Beauty. The school itself is situated on the cliffs above a beautiful beach next to the South West Coast Path.

We offer 30 hour + English programs, and we offer Arts and Culture tours and Walking programs as well. There are a range of wonderful routes, with spectacular views of the Atlantic. Cornwall is also home to a fascinating cultural heritage. The entire Cornish peninsular is linked by hundreds of miles of maintained coastal path, which makes some of the most striking and beautiful vistas accessible to walkers.

We offer classes for adults only, and we limit our classes to a maximum of 6 students. Our approach is designed to encourage talk, we analyze the language in detail and use audiovisual and textual materials related to the local culture and/or personal interests of our students.

We encourage a practical approach to the English language. We explore grammatical issues and exceptions but believe in the practice of speaking English above all. 

There are a range of private accommodation options in St Agnes, but we also offer homestay accommodation and there are also a variety of good private B&Bs or private apartments in the village. 15 hours of general English costs £450 per person, our afternoon program costs £450, and we also offer homestay accommodation for £450. We operate all year round.

There are also 2 daily connecting flights from London airports directly to Cornwall. Newquay Airport is a 30-minute drive from St Agnes. We also offer transfers from Exeter (EXE) and Bristol (BRS) airports. Alternatively, you can take the scenic route and take the train from London Paddington to Truro.
