Enrolment
The number of places on each Course is strictly limited
and you are advised to return your application form as early as
possible. To make a booking you should return your completed booking
form with a 10% deposit to Our World English Schools. If the registration
is made within 30 days of the start of the course, full payment
must be made immediately. The deposit cheque or bank draft should
be payable to Our World English Schools and must be in sterling,
drawn on a London bank. The deposit should be returned with the
booking form, and enrolment is valid once receipt of deposit has
been confirmed by us in writing. Once the full fee has been received
the enrolment will be valid and students will be sent details of
airport meeting arrangements.
Cancellation
An enrolment may be cancelled if, before the start of the Course,
the student, a parent or brother or sister suffers sudden serious
illness, accident or death. At the discretion of Our World English
Schools, a partial refund may be made in the same circumstances
if the student has already started the Course. Appropriate medical
certificates will be required confirming the reason for cancellation.
Cancellation for any other reason, excepting failure to obtain
a visa, will not qualify for a refund of any sort.
Visas
Visas may be required. We will be happy to provide a letter of
acceptance to assist the student in obtaining a visa. Where a
visa application fails, all payments will be refunded in full.
Insurance
Our
World English Schools do not insure the student against illness,
accident or theft or loss of personal possessions. Students are
strongly advised to have insurance cover against cancellation,
loss of personal possessions and money and against personal accident,
however caused. We will be happy to provide details of UK student
insurers.
Liability
It shall be the condition of the contract between Our World English
Schools and the student that Our World English Schools shall not
in any way be liable to the student in the event that any service
contracted to be supplied by Our World English Schools becomes
impossible to supply due to reasons outside our control.
Personal
Possessions
Although
students will be offered the chance to hand in their passports,
return tickets, pocket money and valuable personal possessions
at the start of the Course and although every possible care will
be taken with these items, no responsibility will be taken for
the loss or theft of such items.
Promotional Materials
Our World may wish to use photographs or video images
of students on the course for future promotional purposes. If
parents do not wish to permit this for their children they should
write to the Course Director to that effect before the start of
the course.
