English as a Second Language Study Abroad Programs in Scotland

The International Summer School for Teens (ISSFT®) is a premium, award-winning summer experience for students aged 13–18. Held in the world-famous university towns of St Andrews and Oxford, it combines academic excellence, personal growth, and global friendship in a safe, inspiring setting. Students create their perfect summer by selecting one academic subject — such as Global Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Law & Economics, Academic English, IELTS, Medicine, or AI & Computer Science — and one elective, including Golf, Tennis, Sports Leadership, Theatre, or Photography & Digital Media. This dual-study model blends intellectual challenge with creativity and fun. With students from over 100 nationalities, ISSFT offers full English immersion, developing confidence, independence, and lifelong friendships. Beyond academics, teens enjoy cultural excursions, evening events, and supervised adventures across the UK’s most historic and scenic locations. At ISSFT, every student is supported, inspired, and encouraged to realise their potential — it’s more than a summer school, it’s a transformative journey of discovery, friendship, and adventure.
