In order to provide students with a complete English immersion, GV Malta follows a strict English Only Policy, where students are encouraged to speak English only on campus.

We offer a variety of excursions and trips that one may choose from all year round. GV Malta reserves the right to make changes to the activities programme due to weather conditions, attraction closures or any other reasons beyond our control.

Upon booking and prior to arrival students are to answer a Placement Test to verify their English level. This enables students not to miss the first lessons on the first day.

On the first Monday of the course, new students are welcomed and placed in an appropriate class according to his/her level. If a student does not reach the required minimum level for a specific course, s/he may be asked to change to Private Lessons or another course available.

All flight details as requested in our Registration Form MUST reach us at least 4 days prior to arrival. In the event of delays or sudden flight changes students MUST inform the airport transfer company in sufficient time. No refund will be given in the event of subsequent missed transfers.

Students travelling as unaccompanied minors require a GV representative to provide an additional service upon arrival and departure. The charge for this service is €20 each way. Please advise at the time of booking if the student is travelling as an unaccompanied minor.

Ages 16 – 17: Sunday – Thursday 00:00, Friday – Saturday: 01:00
Under 16: Sunday – Thursday 22:00, Friday – Saturday: 23:00
Should students wish to stay out later, the school requires written authorisation from their parents/guardians along with contact details of the parent/guardian for verification.

Whilst a GV Malta staff member is accessible 24 hours a day, the kids and teen programmes do not include 24-hour supervision. Kids must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at all times even during break times. Students under the age of 13 are only accepted by the school/host families if accompanied to Malta by a parent/guardian. By enrolling your child at Global Village English Centre you are providing us to act on your behalf in the case of an emergency.

Parents/guardians should ensure their children have sufficient money for the duration of their stay. In case of emergency the school will provide pocket money upon receipt of said money in the GV account. This will incur a charge of €20 per transaction, deducted from the sum deposited into GV’s account.

Students are liable for any damage caused to school premises or accommodation. Before departure students must pay the full cost of any damage they caused to property. Global Village English Centre will not be held liable for loss, damage or injury to persons or property.

GV Malta reserves the right to dismiss students for unacceptable behaviour or lack of attendance. No refund will be given. Repatriation is at students’ own expense.
