Requests are made through our website. This helps us to process student requests quickly and more efficiently. Students will be notified by the Registrar if their holiday has been granted or denied. Students cannot take holidays without permission.

9 CHANGING LEVEL No student can move level without written consent from the Registrar. Sometimes, there is a waiting list to join certain levels. Any student wishing to move up a level must consult their teacher, complete a End of Level test and fill in a request form. Level change tests, progress test results, attendance, participation in class and teachers opinion are all considered before moving a student up a level. The final decision is with the teacher. We advise students to finish at least 8 weeks of their course before considering changing levels.
