Dear Parent/Carer

Samuel Ward is again delighted to be able to welcome students from all over Europe to join our outstanding 6th Form.

In order for them to gain the most from their English experience, we are looking for host families from September 2012 to mid June 2013.    Host families are asked to provide room and board and be willing to welcome the student into their home as a member of their family.  A full time member of staff will be responsible for the students’ emotional welfare.

Students will require their own room with the facility to study, wireless internet and full board.  Host families will be reimbursed with £100 per week.

If you feel that you might be able to accommodate one of the students, or if you would simply like more information, please contact Ms Bergau via jbergau@samuelward.co.uk.     

 Please be aware that a Criminal Records check will be completed for host families in order to ensure the well being of these young people. 

 Yours sincerely

 Mrs J Bergau

Head of Internationalism
