Pennoweth Primary School

53 Drump Rd, Redruth TR15 1PR, UK – 01209 215671

I am Student their and i love it

Pennoweth primary school is a great school. Most children there are are above the expected level for their age. This might be due to their methods of teaching or that the classes are of a reasonable size. I would highly recommend this school to others as the results have been much better since the current headmaster (Mr.R Adams) arrived at the school. Although their results are good it still has a few flaws, apart from that it is a great and academically good school.

I am currently in the middle of a 7 month long language course in Munich, Germany through CESA languages, and I could not be any more satisfied. The people at CESA made everything so easy, not only signing up for the course, but also since I have been here. I wouldn't choose anybody else!

I have now attended two Spanish courses with CLIC in Seville booked through CESA Languages. The teaching staff at CLIC are extremely friendly, helpful and make the lessons interesting and fun. The atmosphere at the school is wonderful and I made real progress in Spanish in my two weeks at CLIC. I am now in the process of booking my third visit!
