Mill Hill Short Courses

Mill Hill offers short courses in spring and summer for ages 12-17 with the perfect setting for both learning and enjoyment.

Welcome

Welcome to Mill Hill Short Courses. Located in beautiful grounds, just 30 minutes from the centre of London, we have the perfect setting for both learning and enjoyment. Our courses cater to two groups: students preparing to attend British Boarding Schools and those looking to sample British education.

We welcome international boys and girls aged from 12 to 17. Our courses combine learning English as a foreign language with either Science and Mathematics or Sport. These core elements are complemented by a varied programme of Creative Art classes including Music, Dance, Drama and Art.

While our courses primarily focus on academic development, the diverse social programme and the exciting range of activities and excursions ensures that students find their time at Mill Hill both stimulating and rewarding.

A part of Mill Hill Education Group and split across the campuses of internationally renowned Mill Hill School and Mill Hill International. We are proud to offer fantastic facilities, including an indoor heated swimming pool, modern well-quipped classrooms, comfortable and welcoming boarding houses, and extensive sports facilities.

The safety and well-being of our students is of paramount importance and our suitably trained staff are dedicated to safeguarding students from the moment we meet them at the airport to the final farewell on departure.
