St Julian's
A seaside area where many of the island's language schools are concentrated. Proximity to schools, restaurants and the coast eases the daily program; because evenings can be lively, supervision rules should be set clearly.

Why Malta makes sense for school groups
English is an official language
In Malta, English is an official language alongside Maltese and is widely used in daily life. Students hear and use it outside the classroom as well.
A small island, short distances
Schools, accommodation and activity points are close to each other. That makes daily transport easier and simplifies keeping track of the group.
Language school infrastructure
Malta has long been a destination for international language students. Separate class structures for school groups make it easier to adapt the program to your school's goals.
Mediterranean atmosphere and culture
Valletta's historic fabric, seaside activities and trips to Gozo give a rich social program that balances study and activity.
Malta cities
City pages cover ages, accommodation, a typical day and approximate weekly prices.
About the cities and regions
We work with you to choose the city that suits your group's age, size and goals.
Sliema
Known for its seafront promenade, shopping and transport links. It is within walking distance of St Julian's and has varied accommodation options.
Valletta
The capital and a UNESCO World Heritage city. With its museums and fortifications it is the main stop for culture-focused day trips.
Gozo
A calmer, more rural island where Maltese and English are spoken. It can be used as a day trip or weekend add-on with a nature and history focus.
Other areas
Schools in other parts of the island can offer a quieter setting. The right area is chosen together, based on the age of the group and your priorities.
Planning notes for school management
Practical points to know before deciding. Exact details are set out in the offer prepared for your school.
1
Season and climate
Summers are hot, dry and sunny. Sun cream, hats, water bottles and light clothing matter for students, and outdoor activities around midday are planned around the heat. The sea is suitable for swimming all summer.
2
Accommodation types
For groups, host families, student residences, hotels or apartment-style options are usually considered. Staying close to the school simplifies daily travel. Available options vary by school and period and are stated in the offer.
3
Travel and logistics
Direct flight options from Istanbul to Malta exist and the journey is short. Airport transfers to the accommodation are part of the organisation. Because the island is small, transfer times are short too.
4
Document process
Malta is an EU member and uses the euro. Turkish citizens generally need a visa or travel authorisation; requirements differ by passport type and change over time. The official consulate or government source must always be checked. We guide the school through the document process; the final decision rests with the authorities.
5
Supervision and safety
The number of chaperone teachers is set by group size and age and is stated in the offer. Because tourist numbers rise in summer, evening hours and going-out rules are agreed with teachers in advance. A 24/7 support line is open throughout the program.
Visa and entry rules can change. Check the official consulate or government source for current information; we guide your school through the document process.

Program detailsFrequently asked questions
Malta or the UK for our school group?
Malta suits groups wanting short, focused language study with a warm climate, small scale and intensive programs. The UK offers a wider range of campuses and cities and is preferred by groups who want to experience the language in its home country. Compare both pages and share your needs and we can decide together.
How many teachers should accompany the group?
The number of chaperone teachers depends on group size, student age and program type. Detailed conditions are set out in the offer.
Which age group is it suitable for?
Summer school generally suits final-year primary through high school students, and language school suits middle and high school students. Age groups are set by program.
Will the summer heat be a problem for students?
Summers are hot, and the program is designed with that in mind. Outdoor activities around midday are limited, and sun protection and plenty of water are reinforced.
How does the visa and document process work?
Turkish citizens generally need a visa or travel authorisation for Malta; requirements differ by passport type and change over time. Check the official consulate or government source for current information. We guide the school through the document process.
What is the accommodation like?
Host families, student residences, hotels or apartment-style options are considered. Students are placed by age and gender. Options vary by school and period.
