WELCOME TO JACT DURHAM GREEK & LATIN SUMMER SCHOOL

The 30th JACT Durham Greek & Latin Summer School will take place from Saturday 20th - Saturday 27th July 2024 at St John's College, Durham.

​

We offer courses at five levels in both Latin and Greek from Beginner's to Advanced, in addition to a new Classical Civilisation course on 'The Homeric Hero', with our highly qualified and experienced tutors from schools and universities. Please see 'Courses Offered' for more information.

​

 Students have 18 hours of tuition for which they are expected to prepare in the time available for private study. We work hard, but also have time for relaxation and optional visits to Hadrian’s Wall, the cathedral and other local places of interest. In the evenings we have lectures on a wide range of classical topics from visiting speakers. In the afternoons we have optional sessions which might include grammar clinics, lectures or discussions. On the first night, we meet our teaching groups by teaming up with them to participate in a classical quiz. On the last evening, there will be a formal dinner.
