Our primary courses aim to supplement our student’s existing knowledge and learning by providing a friendly space to practice and increase confidence.
We build on the foundations of English by expanding lexical awareness (vocabulary) and functional communicative skills (conversation) with fun and engaging content.
Find out more about Meridian Courses schedule, syllabus and academic calendar below.
Courses start every Monday. You have to book a course at least 2 weeks before your preferred course starting date. Each course booking is calculated as a fixed number of sessions. At the booking stage you will see your official course start and finish dates that take any public holidays or school closures in to account.
Below we present sample class times. Time changes happen according to UK Daylight saving system. We’ll notify you in advance if it affects your child’s class time. (Class time change will only happen in some countries).
