PJL Global Students

A Home Away From Home in Eastbourne

For an international student, where they stay can shape their whole experience of studying in the UK. PJL Global Students works with welcoming host families in Eastbourne to give young people somewhere they can settle in, feel comfortable and become part of everyday family life.

It is an approach students themselves clearly value. Testimonials repeatedly mention the friendly atmosphere, good food, activities and the feeling of being treated as part of the family rather than simply being given somewhere to sleep. One student describes how important it was to have someone who could make international students “feel we are home occasionally”.

Host Families for International Students

Founded by Phil Langridge, PJL Global Students is an independent family business that has been working with international students in Eastbourne for more than a decade. Phil and Nympha also host students themselves, giving them first-hand understanding of what makes a positive homestay experience.

Depending on the programme, PJL Global Students can arrange:

• Host family accommodation for small or larger student groups
• Half-board or full-board stays
• Bespoke summer programmes
• English language tuition
• Excursions and activities
• Accommodation for smaller groups within PJL Global’s own family setting

For families considering becoming hosts, the process is personal too. Phil or Nympha can arrange to visit your home, answer your questions and explain what hosting involves before you make a decision.

Supporting the Whole Student Experience

The aim is not simply to place students in accommodation. PJL Global Students wants young visitors to enjoy Eastbourne, improve their English, experience British culture, make friends and know there is someone they can turn to when they need help or guidance.
