Excursions

In addition to the standard course programme, students will take trips to famous British museums and sites, such as Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, and The Houses of Parliament. These excursions offer students opportunities to experience British history and culture. Students will also visit Oxford University and Cambridge University.
