The average age outside summer is 5 years higher than in summer.
Location: The school is situated off the southwest corner of St. Stephen’s Green in Dublin city centre. It is very close to Grafton Street and its surrounds would arguably be Ireland’s most exclusive shopping district. Temple Bar and all major attractions are within walking distance of the school.
Getting around: The Luas stop (tram) is also minutes away on foot and Pearse Street and Tara Street stations (train) are about a 20-minute walk away. It is also well-serviced by local buses.

Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

“The location, the teachers, and the host family were great.”
Insider tip: “The courses are not adapted for students who come for only 2 or 3 weeks. I don't recommend this school for the students who only stay for a short period because we followed the same course outline as that of students who stayed for a few months. The program was not adapted for us. ”
