Services at LTC Eastbourne

Airport Transfers

Here at LTC Eastbourne we can arrange taxi transfers for any student. Taxis can take students from the airport to the school or from the airport straight to their accommodation. We can also arrange for a taxi to take students back to the airport when they leave. For all students on Young Learner Summer School programmes we strongly recommend a taxi transfer When young students return home, we can offer a ‘Park and Assist’ service which means our driver can stay with them until they have checked in at the airport (see our Prices page for details of these transfer fees). For those under 16 years old, we will automatically arrange this Park and Assist option.

Care of Students under the Age of 18

For those under 18, we have staff that are dedicated to the welfare of students. They will get to know each student individually and will always be there to help if they have a problem or a question. View details of the level of care we give to students under 18
