Bath Academy is located in an elegant and spacious Georgian building in historic Queen Square in Bath city centre, close to all the major amenities and facilities of the city. The college has bright, well-proportioned classrooms with modern teaching facilities, an art room, a computer room and a well-equipped library for private study. There is also a comfortable common room where students can relax and meet their friends.
The college offers a wide range of courses and subjects at GCSE and Advanced Level as well as the David Game University Foundation Programme (UFP) and English Language courses. GCSE subjects are taught in a One-term Retake programme and a One-year Intensive programme; they may also be combined with 'A' Levels in a variety of ways depending on the needs of the student. At 'A' level there are three distinct programmes: a One-term Retake course, a standard Two-year course and a One-year Intensive course.
The University Foundation Programme is a thirty two week course which offers overseas students an alternative route to British university degree courses and which has been designed by David Game's teaching team in consultation with university admission tutors. There are two admission dates within the same academic year, September and January, for admission to university in the next academic year. The course is modular with a structure similar to the first year of a four-year university degree course and gives entry to a wide range of universities and degree courses.
The English Language courses run throughout the year and include Cambridge examinations at all levels and IELTS. Easter and Summer courses at GCSE and 'A' Level as well as English Language courses are also offered.
Bath Academy has its own supervised residential accommodation just five minutes' walk from the college and the city centre. Elegant, spacious rooms are available, some with en-suite facilities and students can received full-board or be self-catering. The residence has a kitchen and a comfortable common room with satellite television and video as well as a small games room. The college also arranges accommodation with caring and responsible host families who provide half-board during the week and full-board at weekends.
