BBSI Terms & Conditions of Enrolment


Enrolment
To enrol on a course at BBSI, students shoud forward a completed enrolment form, and a copy of their passport, together with a non-refundable deposit of £500.00, or alternatively forward their full fees to BBSI in advance.  Students applying for a General Student Visa must also supply proof of their English language level.  In the case of a visa refusal, a refund of the deposit, less the £90.00 enrolment fee and £10.00 CAS fee, may be granted at the discretion of the BBSI Directors on production of an original visa refusal document, provided full UK Border Agency criteria for visa application are met.  Completed enrolment forms may be forwarded to BBSI by fax, e-mail or post. BBSI will subsequently confirm the booking and invoice the client for the total fees due.  Any balance of fees would be due 4 weeks prior to course commencement and should include any bank charges. 
 
There will be no refund in the event of late arrival for a course, eary departure, change of course or dismissal.  Enrolments are accepted on the understanding that students will study for the duration of stay declared at the time of enrolment.  The onus is on clients to ensure that they receive full information on the course they require prior to enrolment.  BBSI reserves the right to make changes to the dates, fees and content of courses, without notice. 

Minimum Age
BBSI accepts students aged 17 and above for all its programmes, with the exception of our General English courses, for which the minimum age is 16 years.

Language Level
Should clients wish to confirm their Engllish language levels are sufficient for a particular course, they may undertake the BBSI on-Line English test at http://www.bbsi.co.uk/study-english-england_uk-language-colleges_english-britain_english-in-britain_study-english-in-britain/.  Should a client’s language level prove too low for the course selected, BBSI will recommend an alternative course, and advise as to how much additional study time will be needed to achieve their specified training objectives.

Examinations
Examination fees for those seeking to undertake external examinations are not included in the BBSI course fees. The fees for external examinations will be notified on request.

Classes & Lessons
All classes have a maximum of 12 participants; however, during peak periods, BBSI reserves the right to increase class sizes to a maximum of 15.

Payment of Fees
Full payment of fees is due 4 weeks prior to course commencement.  Payment can be made either by telegraphic transfer, bankers draft, cheque (drawn on a UK bank), or credit card (a 3 percent handling charge applies). Bank transfers should be forwarded directly to:

When making a telegraphic transfer, clients will need to provide the Bank with their name, address and BBSI invoice number.  All bank charges must be met by the client.

Extending a Course
A course can be extended at BBSI at any time during study, subject to availability. However, fees must be paid prior to commencement of the extended programme.
 
Course Withdrawal
 Should a student leave or be dismissed from BBSI prior to course completion date, no refund will be payable.  Clients are therefore strongly advised to obtain travel and health insurance.  Should a student decide during his or her course to take a holiday and be absent from the course, he or she will forfeit the period of holiday taken, with no right to refund or compensation. In this case a student’s final certification may be in question.

Accommodation
BBSI acts strictly as an agent in arranging and providing accommodation for its clients. Requests to change or leave previously allocated accommodation must be made in advance.  Notice periods for vacating accommodation are one week for a homestay and 4 weeks for residential (or payment in lieu).  A fee of £25.00 will be charged to students requesting to change their accommodation.  Where accommodation is required for a part-week only, that week’s fee is payable in full.  During holiday periods, between terms, or when the School is closed, students must makew their  own arrangements with their respective hosts.   Should a student be absent during a School break, a retainer of £40.00 would be payable for standard homestay, or £50.00 for an executive homestay. 

Discipline
The School reserves the right to dismiss a student for unsatisfactory work, poor attendance, or misconduct. In such circumstances, fees will not be refunded.

Liability & Insurance
BBSI and its representatives will not be liable for any loss, damage, illness, or injury to persons or property, however caused, except where such liability is imposed by law. It is each client´s responsibility to take out personal insurance cover against all such risks, including the inability to attend or continue a course due to illness or accidental injury. This can be arranged by logging onto http://www.course-u-can.com/.  Cover can be arranged for the following:
 
  • *  medical expenses
  • *  personal accident
  • *  cancellation/curtailment
  • *  personal effects and money
  • *  personal liability
  •  
Data Protection Statement
Students' personal information will be held in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998.  BBSI will not disclose such information to any unauthorised person or body but where appropriate will use such information to carry out its various functions and services.  BBSI may also use this data in connection with the prevention of detection of fraud or other crime. 

Photographs, Video and DVD
During BBSI courses photographs and video footage may be taken, some of which may be incorporated into future publicity material.  If you do not wish to appear in any promtional publications, please advise us in writing before the start of your course. 

Force Majeure

Neither BBSI, nor its representatives, are liable in the event of the School being unable to supply services to which it is contractually bound, ie in the event of labour disputes, or other causes outside the School´s control.
