Location
This programme takes place at Marymount International School in Kingston-upon-Thames where we also run a residential programme. A private coach, accompanied by our staff, collects children from a pick-up/drop-off point near Gloucester Road Underground Station, Kensington and takes them to the school. The journey takes just over 30 minutes, depending on traffic.
