We have a wide range of course options available whether you wish to study full time or part time.

There is no afternoon class on the last Friday of each month as many students like to go away for the weekend, and the school also organises an afternoon activity. eg. Kayaking, golf, visit to an art gallery.

Our fees are very good value. Remember there are no more than 10 students in the class, usually there are about 6-8 students. At Trafalgar English School we believe education should be affordable. There are no other costs. Class textbooks are used - if you want to buy a book you can, they cost about $60 each. You bring your own stationery, such as an exercise book to write your class notes in. All classes start on any Monday (except public holidays)
