Students research and present a personal project relating to the course's four modules - Modern International History, Global Political Economy, International Relations Theory and the Globalisation of Society. Students choose topics from a programme including theory options such as Shakespeare and literary analysis, and practical options such as writing children's books and drama workshops. Students are introduced to important ideas and theories about the media. At the same time, they are guided through the production of their own video and digital editing projects. Students study music and drama separately until halfway through the course when the two are brought together for the writing, rehearsal and performance of an original production.
Students also learn how to use the Internet as a resource, and the basics of web page design.
Students learn about English working life, the job market and how to apply for jobs, or about the English education system, study opportunities and how to apply for courses. Activity Weeks take place in March and October. Students organise study programmes in different parts of the British Isles, which are then presented to the school. As an alternative students can also organise work experience. Needless to say, students can take lessons at whatever times suit them best.
