We're excited to share three new brochures with our partner schools and agents, covering everything from year-round Mini-Stay courses to our full 2027 Summer programme portfolio, including an important first for St Andrew's College Language Schools.
Here's what's new, what's changed, and what it means for you when planning your students' programmes.
1. Mini-Stay English Courses 2026-27
Our Mini-Stay courses are British Council accredited, the brochure covers short, flexible English programmes running outside the High Season Summer period. Mini-Stay courses are available from the third week of August to the second week of June.
What's in it:
- Seven centres across England and Scotland: University of Greenwich (Medway), University of Essex (Colchester), Cobham Hall School, University of London (Goldsmiths), Newbattle Abbey College (Edinburgh), City of Glasgow College, and UWS Glasgow Paisley
- Flexible 5-14 night programmes
- 15 hours of ELT per week with Sunday arrivals, plus excursions, activities and Language Based Activity days
- Clear terms & conditions, including deposit, cancellation and payment policies
What this means for you: Mini-Stay is the option to reach for when a group wants a shorter, off-peak trip with full flexibility on programme design, highly useful for schools working around term-time constraints.
2. English Language Summer Courses 2027: The Full Portfolio
This is our flagship brochure, and it reflects real growth in our destination network for Summer 2027.
Destinations now span five countries:
- England: 11 centres, from London and Greater London through to the South, North and West
- Scotland: Ayr, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling and Loch Lomond, including the popular Celtic FC football programme at Stirling
- Ireland: Dublin, at the Marino Institute of Education
- Spain: Malaga (more on this below)
- USA: New York (Fordham University), Miami (Lynn University) and Malibu (Pepperdine University)
Key changes and additions to flag to families:
- University of Glasgow joins the Scotland line-up, offering both General English and a dedicated Academic English pathway.
- USA Overnight Extras are new: optional add-on trips to Washington DC, Universal Orlando, and Grand Canyon & Las Vegas, priced per student with group-size discounts.
- Gold and Platinum programme upgrades are now clearly laid out at every centre, making it easy to build a tiered offer for groups.
- A refreshed Care & Welfare section sets out our safeguarding levels, 24/7 support and group leader resources in one place.
- The SAC Mobile App gets a dedicated spread including offline access to excursions, student diary, activities and safety info, plus tools for Group Leaders (class lists, absences, accommodation reports, direct communication)
What this means for you: more choice across more geographies, a stronger academic option in Glasgow, and clearer upgrade tiers to help you match programmes to budget.
3. Spanish and English Summer Courses 2027: Malaga
This standalone Malaga brochure carries genuinely exciting news: we're launching Spanish-language courses for the first time, alongside our established English programme.
- NEW: Spanish academic programme — 15 hours per week, CEFR levels A1+ to C1+, CELTA-equivalent qualified teachers, same task-based approach as our English courses
- English programme continues alongside it, so groups can choose either language or mix within a single group booking
- Based at Xior Malaga Teatinos, a modern student residence with single en-suite rooms, gym and social spaces, 15 minutes from the airport
- Full excursion programme including Cueva de Nerja, the Alhambra in Granada, and coastal towns like Marbella, Torremolinos and Benalmádena
- Four turns available across summer 2027 (from 19th June)
What this means for you: for the first time, you can offer students a genuine choice between improving their English or learning Spanish, in the same sunny Costa del Sol setting. This is a great option for Spanish-speaking markets or mixed-language groups.
