Newcastle International School

Staying with a host family is the best way to practise and improve your English. We try our very best to accommodate you to your specific needs and our dedicated host families will help you settle here in Newcastle upon Tyne. The host will treat you as a full member of the household, eating together and sharing common living areas. All of our families are located in the city or surrounding areas, with easy access to public transport.

Our lovely host families are inspected throughout the year by NISE staff to ensure that they keep up the high standard.

Homestay options:

• Self-catering
• Half board
