What is Structured Study?
At school we recognize that successful students are those who take responsibility for their own learning, and work to develop their skills outside of the classroom. We provides students with a structured and comprehensive approach to guided study that both empowers and enables them to use their skills in the real world. The Structured Study program consists of both teacher-led and independent components, students can choose between a wide variety of Structured Study options to extend their classroom learning and can participate in one of the teacher-led components and/or take advantage of a wealth of available language study resources.The school online materials are part of our Blended Learning syllabus. The content is closely linked to the topics, vocabulary and grammar being studied in the General English class and provides consolidation and extension of classroom work. This means that students have the opportunity to review and practice English at their own pace and focus on areas of particular interest or need
