About SKOOL

Skool is an adult English Language school in the heart of Cornwall. We offer are the most immersive language programme for our learners, and pair learning language with exclusive experiences: English with Walking, English with Water Sports and English with Arts and Culture.

We are small, but perfectly formed; we provide personalised tuition, away from busy classrooms, and away from the crowds.

Our ambition is to make a positive difference to people’s lives, in our small way. We have a part to play in the issues of the day, and those we bequeath to our children.

Toby Keane – Founder

When I was growing up, the classes I learned most in were those where the teacher recognised my potential and encouraged me. When I disappeared in the crowd, my English teacher found me.

That was 30 years ago. And after 3 degrees and a career teaching for much of my adult life, this is the lesson that that has stayed with me: fewer students – more personal attention.

Wheal Kitty: the home of Skool Cornwall

Skool is located in the historic remnants of an old tin mine at Wheal Kitty in St Agnes. Our classroom is mere steps from breathtaking views of the wild Atlantic Ocean and the arresting coastline. We are a few short steps from the South West Coast Path, and the pretty beach at Trevaunance Cove is a five minute walk form our door. St Agnes is a UNESCO World Heritage site and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
