Description
After hundreds of years of development, the British education system is famous all over the world for its high standard of teaching quality. Moreover, as the birthplace of modern universities and the place where the world’s oldest university is located, Britain is always characterized by high-level education and rigorous style of study.
Most British schools pay more attention to the cultivation of knowledge acquisition methods than simple knowledge transfer in the training and education of students. Many educators in the UK are adhering to this educational philosophy-rather than teaching students knowledge, it is better to let students master their own methods of acquiring knowledge. This concept coincides with the ancient Chinese saying “Offering them fish is worse than teaching them to fish”.
Secondly, Britain is born with an education atmosphere of gentlemen and ladies, namely aristocratic education. It is not about the aristocratic education in terms of price, but the philosophy and essence. In addition to cultivating students’ academic standards, British aristocratic schools will also cultivate social skills and comprehensive quality of students, focusing on the cultivation of humanity and quality education. Through such elite education, students are trained to become elites in society.
UK is well known about its education system. There are many schools are excellent, Bilton Grange is one of them.
Why immersion schools ?
- The winter vacation in China coincides with the normal classes in British schools. At this time, children go to high-quality local schools in the United Kingdom to join classes. This will not delay the domestic courses, but also experience the original British education from zero distance.
- As we all know, private aristocratic schools in the UK are schools for cultivating elites. Only 7% of children in the UK can enter private schools, and 50% of the students enrolled by the University of Cambridge and Oxford come from private schools. Private schools are of first-class quality in terms of teaching and quality education. Taro students can join classes with British students in private schools, eat and live together, and truly experience the life of the British aristocratic private school every day.

Lockers Park School is a preparatory boarding school for boys. Located in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. It takes 1 hour to drive to London.
Lockers Park is one of the oldest preparatory schools in the UK. It was established in 1874 to prepare boys for admission to the famous rugby school. Now, graduates enter the most prestigious schools in the UK, including the famous Eton College.
The goal of the school is to instill a love of knowledge in children and create a safe and friendly environment conducive to children’s development.
There are approximately 160 students in the school.
There are many arguments in favor of independent training for boys:
• Boys are naturally more active and active. For normal development, they need a lot of exercise, sports and outdoor games.
• Boys’ success criteria are slightly different from girls (disobedience, but leadership, arrogance, etc.).
• Boys’ self-expression and a competitive environment for active development are necessary.
From childhood, boys have been taught to cope with “non-male work” easily and become self-sufficient and independent.
