At what time should I report to school on my first day?
You should arrive at school between 8.15am and 8.45am, and the exact time will be in the information pack you receive when you arrive at your accommodation. You must bring in your Kaplan International Centers documents, your passport, proof of insurance and a pen to do the initial English test on your first day.

What will I do on my first day?
All students take a Kaplan International Centers English test, meet the school staff and have an introduction to the school, facilities, courses and the local area. You will receive an individual timetable later in the day and your classes begin on the following day. Remember, if you have questions feel free to ask! The school staff are there to help, especially on your first day.

Will my lessons be in the morning or afternoon?
This depends on the location of your school and time of year – many of the schools run classes in the morning and afternoon so be prepared for this. However, once we have set your lesson schedule we will aim to keep it the same for some time as many students have a part-time job. Remember though, that your lessons and school work must come first and any paid work must be scheduled around this.

Do I get a certificate or diploma after the course?
You will receive a Certificate of Attendance at the end of your course, which will show your level of English, the dates on which you have studied, as well as your attendance.
