Your first day!

What happens on your first day?

On your first day, we ask you to come to school one hour before classes begin.

IH Bristol entrance hall

Who do you talk to?

You will be greeted by our lovely admin team, who will check we have all of your personal deatils and will ask to see your passport.

What do you need?

If you have sent us a photo, you will receive your IH Bristol student card. You will also receive a welcome folder, including our student handbook. A member of our admin team will go through the welcome folder with you, and explain IH Bristol's emergency procedures to you and all the other new students in our students' room.

Where should you go?

All new students will have a tour of the building before being shown to your classrooms.

Which class will you be in?

Our Principal or one of our senior teachers will conduct a short, individual speaking test during your first morning. Don't worry - this is just to make sure you go to the best class for you!

What about after school?

After school, there will be welcome drinks at a nearby bar/welcome coffee at the school. New students get their first drink free!
