Change or Cancellation of a course by the School

Sometimes it is agreed between the School and a student that it would be beneficial for the student to be moved to another School course. When this happens only a course of at least equivalent cost will be offered by the School.
The School reserves the right to cancel a course, or make changes to course arrangements, without liability, if forced to do so for reasons beyond its control. If this happened, the School would seek to offer alternative arrangements, dates or venues.
If the School cancelled a course booked and paid for by a student in accordance with these terms other than for reasons beyond its control, and did not offer an alternative acceptable to the student, the School would pay compensation as follows:
鈥 Where the cancellation is before the start of the course, compensation equal to the deposit paid by the student or
鈥 Where the cancellation is after the start of the course, compensation equal to one week鈥檚 fees.
鈥 We reserve the right to postpone the start of the course for students aged under 18 years if we are not able to source a homestay with the required level of child protection status.
