READING TEST
STAMFORD SUMMER SCHOOL
Summer schools in England for foreigners have become quite popular and there are many
of them all over England. Why? Because England is a very good place to learn English. When
the students leave the classroom they have many opportunities to practice the English they have
learnt.
One of these schools is Stamford Summer School, situated 90 miles north of London.
The students live at the school or with a family in the town. Most students over 14 prefer
to stay with a family.
Students going to the Summer School should have been learning* English for at least*
one year. At the beginning of each course every student does a test. The result of this test
determines what class the student will be in.
There are three lessons (50 minutes each) every morning. The aim* of these lessons is to
improve the students’ English. At the same time the lessons try to give the students some
knowledge of Britain, its people and history – and knowledge of daily life in Britain.
Stamford Summer School is especially for boys and girls who are interested in sport.
Other activities are: discos, table tennis, competitions and films (video). During the
course there are excursions to London, Cambridge and other places.
