UK Education Agency & Ground Operations
VerbaX places overseas student groups into accredited UK summer schools, English programmes and specialist courses — and coordinates the entire UK ground operation for every group we place. One partner, one contact, from enquiry to departure.
Not sure what you need yet? Tell us the group size and the dates — we'll build the rest with you.
EXAMPLE — 2-WEEK SUMMER PROGRAMME
Ground programme
An illustration of how a programme is scheduled. Yours is built around your group, your dates and your budget.
Programmes
Tell us the ages, level and dates and we will propose the accredited school and programme that actually fits — with the UK ground operation included.
Summer schools
English tuition combined with a supervised activity and excursion programme on residential campuses. The format overseas schools ask us for most often.
Young learners
Age-banded residential camps with full supervision, pastoral care and activity programmes built around younger students.
Short-term English
General and intensive English at accredited centres, from short mini-stays to multi-week blocks, with placement testing on arrival.
Academic & specialist
IELTS and exam preparation, academic English and subject-specific programmes for students working towards UK study.
Work experience
Work experience placements and Erasmus scheme support, combining language study with practical exposure to a UK workplace.
Higher education
Foundation and pathway programmes for students progressing towards undergraduate study in the UK.
From arrival to departure
Placement and logistics are one chain. A weak link anywhere and the programme suffers, so we hold the whole chain rather than passing you between suppliers.
01 — Step 01
Tell us the group size, ages, dates, English level and budget. A rough outline is enough to start.
02 — Step 02
We match the group to an accredited partner school that fits the ages, level, dates and budget — not simply whichever school has space.
03 — Step 03
Tuition, accommodation, activities and transfers come back as one written programme with one price per student.
04 — Step 04
Meet and greet at Heathrow or Gatwick, all terminals, then a private coach transfer to the school or campus.
05 — Step 05
Lessons, activities and excursions run to the agreed schedule, with UK support available throughout the stay.
06 — Step 06
Campus to airport transfer, timed to the check-in window for the group's terminal.
Partner schools
Every partner school in our network holds recognised UK accreditation. That is the filter applied before a group is placed anywhere.
The accreditation listed above is held by our partner schools. VerbaX is the education agency arranging placement and UK ground operations.
Partner school locations
Included as standard
Placement is only half of it. What decides whether a trip runs smoothly is everything between the airport and the classroom — so we coordinate that ourselves rather than handing you to a third party.
Heathrow and Gatwick, all terminals, with meet and greet on arrival.
Private group transport to the school or campus, and for every excursion day.
London, Oxford, Cambridge, Windsor and Stonehenge, arranged around the timetable.
A UK contact available for the duration of the programme.
Programmes
We don't sell packages. You give us the constraints — who is coming, when, from where, and what the trip is for — and we return a timed programme with costs against it.

Departure
These are the inputs we need. If you only have half of them, send half — the first reply will tell you what else we need to price it.
Where we work
Partner schools sit in the first group of cities. The rest are excursion destinations we build into programmes. The list is not the limit.

Why VerbaX
Most organisers deal with a school, a transport company and an excursion supplier separately. One relationship removes the gaps between them.
